LITERATURE READING PRIDE AND PREJUDICE AT THE MOVIES Thursday, February 4, 11, 18, 25, March 3, 10; 4:45 – 6:15 PM Pracht Seminar Room, Anderson University Thrift Library, 2nd floor Registration: $20; Teacher recertification credit available.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that even 200 years after its publication Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice continues to engage and entertain. The many modern print versions, pop culture interpretations, and movie adaptations demonstrate Austen’s study of manners, romance, and social satire still has relevance and appeal.

This course combines a reading of the novel with discussions of several visual interpretations, including the popular 1995 BBC miniseries, the 2004 Bollywood film Bride & Prejudice, the 2005 movie starring Keira Knightley, and the forthcoming Pride and Prejudice and Zombies to be released in February 2016. Two areas of focus guide the course: first, an exploration of the novel’s transcendent themes, especially as a modern social commentary; and second, a study of the ways contemporary social and cultural dynamics have shaped the films.

Dr. Karen Zagrodnik is a lecturer of English at Anderson University and has taught college classes on Jane Austen. Her area of specialty is the long eighteenth-century British period. She considers herself both a Janeite and an Austenite.

CAROLINA POETS Wednesday, March 2, 9, 23, 30; 4:30 – 6:00 PM; Vandiver 134 Registration: $20; Teacher recertification credit available.

The Carolinas have produced a great number of outstanding poets.

This class will feature several poets from South and North Carolina, including James Dickey, Marjorie Wentworth, Ron Rash, Robert Morgan, George Moses Horton, to name a few. We will explore poems that share insights into the people, places, and culture of the South. In addition, in our last session we invite participants to bring one of their favorite poems to share with the class. Come join us for fellowship and experience the power of poetry. Dr. Bob Hanley serves as the Vice Provost for Academic Advising and Professor of English. He has over thirty-six years of teaching experience. He has earned various honors and awards, including the Alumni Master Teacher of the Year, the President’s Award, and most recently, the 2015 FowlerMcCaskill Lifetime Achievement Award from the South Carolina Council of English Teachers. Dr. Hanley has taught both British and American poetry and has served as judge for several poetry contests.

He particularly enjoys our Carolina poets and has published a variety of poems himself.

RELIGION REVELATION, A BOOK OF HOPE Monday, February 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, and March 7, 2:00 to 3:30 PM Vandiver 134 | Registration: $20 Revelation is the most misunderstood and misinterpreted book in the Bible. People like to predict the world is about to end and claim things are in Revelation that are not there. Its message is hope through Jesus Christ who will ultimately conquer all evil. You may not recognize hope because the book is full of chaos, destruction, and strange creatures and numbers. Yet, it offers hope to Christians under fire because they worship Christ instead of the Roman emperor who requires people to acknowledge him as a god by burning incense at his altars. Come to class with an open Bible and an open mind. Emeritus Professor Lawrence Webb is a minister, former pastor and editor. He is author of seven books, including Revelation, A Book of Hope, the framework for this class. He is chair of the Board of Lifelong Learning Institute at AU, and he teaches the long-running Baraca Radio Sunday School Class at 10 a.m. at 107.7 FM, 1280 AM, and online 24/7 at www.andersonfbc.org/baraca.

Join us in a classroom setting as we explore some of the forgotten themes and stories of the Smokies—the story of the first settlers and of the natural wonders all around them—of American chestnuts, maples and maple-sugaring; the story of forgotten towns and forgotten roads; the story of William Holland Thomas and the Cherokee and of mountain treks and a forgotten Civil War fort; and, in the twentieth century, the story of the Road to Nowhere on the north shore of Fontana Lake.

Over the years, he has remained fascinated and has made many visits, taken classes, and researched the cultural and natural history of the Smokies.

SOUTH CAROLINA LEADERS IN THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION Monday, April 11, 18, 25, May 2 | 4:00 -5:30 pm | Vandiver 134 Registration: $20; Teacher recertification credit hours available.

South Carolina deserves more credit for its role in the Revolutionary War than is generally realized. Its critical place in the final outcome of the war was due to the leaders we will spotlight like the traditional heroes Francis Marion, Daniel Morgan and Nathanael Greene. We will also look at notorious British leaders like Banastre Tarleton and Lord Charles Cornwallis. Dr. Bonnie Ledbetter is a graduate of Ohio State, Western Reserve, and Tulane, where she received her Ph.D. She served on the Texas A & M history faculty and the Clemson faculty.

GREAT DECISIONS Thursday, March 24, 31, April 7, 14, 21, 28, May 5, 12; 4:45 – 6:15 PM Pracht Seminar Room, Anderson University Thrift Library, 2nd floor Registration: $20: Teacher Recertification Credit Available Middle East Alliances: From a proxy war in Yemen to an ongoing civil war in Syria, a number of ongoing conflicts have shaken the traditional alliances in the Middle East to their core.. In a series of conflicts that are far from being black-and-white, what can the U.S. do to secure its interests in the region without causing further damage and disruption?

The Rise of ISIS: Born out of an umbrella organization of Al-Qaeda in Iraq, the so-called Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) burst onto the international stage after it seized Fallujah in December 2013. Since then, the group has seized control of a number of critical strongholds in the country and declared itself a caliphate, known as the Islamic State. Still, the question remains: What is ISIS, and what danger does it pose to U.S. interests? The Future of Kurdistan: Kurdistan, a mountainous area made up of parts of Turkey, Iraq, Iran, and Syria, is home to one of the largest ethnic groups in region: the Kurds. Now, most in the West know them for their small, oil-rich autonomous region in northern Iraq called Iraqi Kurdistan — one of the U.S.’ closer allies in the Middle East and a bulwark against the expansion of the so-called Islamic State. What does the success of Iraqi Kurdistan mean for Kurds in the surrounding region? Migration: As a record number of migrants cross the Mediterranean Sea to find refuge in Europe, the continent is struggling to come up with an adequate response. Today, with the number of displaced people at an all-time

high, a number of world powers find themselves facing a difficult question: how can they balance border security with humanitarian concerns? The Koreas: At the end of World War II, Korea was divided in two. The northern half of the Korean peninsula was occupied by the Soviet Union, the southern by the United States. The North is underdeveloped, impoverished and ruled by a corrupt, authoritarian government, while the South advanced rapidly to become one of the most developed countries in the world. With such a wide gap, some are asking if unification is possible, even desirable, anymore. The United Nations: On the eve of the international organization’s 70th birthday, the United Nations stands at a crossroads. This year marks a halfway point in the organization’s global effort to eradicate poverty, hunger and discrimination, as well as ensure justice and dignity for all peoples. But as the UN’s 193 member states look back at the success of the millennium development goals, they also must assess their needs for its sustainable development goals. With the appointment of the ninth secretary-general in the near future as well, the next UN leader is bound to have quite a lot on his or her plate going into office. Climate change: In the past few years, the American public has become more aware of the damage wrought by climate change.

From droughts in the west to extreme weather in the west, a rapidly changing climate has already made its footprint in the United States.

What can the next president do to stymie this environmental crisis?

And is it too late for these efforts to be effective? Cuba and the U.S.: The U.S. announced in December 2014 that, after decades of isolation, it has begun taking major steps to normalize relations with Cuba. The announcement marks a dramatic shift away from a policy that has its roots in one of the darkest moments of the Cold War — the Cuban missile crisis. Although the U.S. trade embargo is unlikely to end any time soon, American and Cuban leaders today are trying to bring a relationship, once defined by antithetical ideologies, into the 21st century. Mr. Tony Mollgaard is a German-American, born in Northern Germany in 1938. He has lived in the USA since 1958, received bachelor’s and master’s degrees in electrical engineering.

He retired from Michelin in 2000. Ms. Pat Mulligan retired as a history professor at AU in 1998, worked in Russia and Turkey 12 years with resident ex pats, retired again in October 2014.
