THE LAKEFRONT AND CHICAGO PLAN OF 1909 Daniel Burnham famously stated “Make no little plans. They have no magic to stir men’s blood and probably themselves will not be realized. Make big plans; aim high in hope and work, remembering that a noble, logical diagram once recorded will never die, but long after we are gone will be a living thing, asserting itself with ever-growing insistency.”

Without doubt, more than his skyscrapers or Symphony Hall, Burnham’s greatest legacy to Chicago is his Chicago Plan of 1909. Visit three parks that are jewels on the lakefront: Jackson Park, the Museum Campus and Lincoln Park, studying them in context of the Chicago Plan of 1909. This tour involves some walking. Lunch is on your own. Bus leaves Grayslake Area Library at 8:30 a.m.; bus leaves Southlake Campus in Vernon Hills at 9 a.m. Please arrive 15 minutes early.

Art and Architecture CHICAGO ARCHITECTURE IN THE 1960S The 1960s were an interesting period in architecture, worldwide and in Chicago. It was the beginning of large scale mass-produced materials, assimilation of the modernist movement (which in Chicago was the fascination with the glass and steel skyscraper of Mies van der Rohe) and an interest in the space age, which also became translated in architecture. The architecture and design of the 1960s plays a pivotal role in bringing about contemporary architecture.

Current Events GREAT DECISIONS DISCUSSION GROUP Great Decisions is an opportunity to study, discuss and share opinions about some of today’s complex foreign policy issues using articles provided by the Foreign Policy Association, an independent nonpartisan and non-governmental organization that has worked to educate the public about foreign policy issues since 1918. The eight topics for discussion in 2014 are Defense Technology (drones and NSA eavesdropping), Israel (fasten your seatbelts for the emotion of this topic), Turkey (Islamic and democratic – but for how long?), Islamic Awakening, Energy Independence, Food and Climate (95 percent of the world’s scientists now believe global warming is occurring and that it is manmade, which will have significant impact on which areas of the world will be able to grow what types of crops), China’s Foreign Policy and U.S. Trade Policy.

INTROVERSION AND EXTROVERSION IN CULTURE OF PERSONALITY In our culture of personality, as Susan Cain describes it, the individual most at ease in social situations—whether in the corporate world, at networking events, parties, on social media sites or in the classroom— thrives; they exist in a culture that places preference on one’s ability to extemporaneously market (whether of the self at a party or on a date, an idea to a colleague, for a boardroom presentation, in a professional development workshop, or when on an interview, for instance). Due to the observatory nature of the introverted personality, detecting subtleties is one of the introvert’s leading talents (for example, they are more adept at noticing the small fluctuations in peoples’ moods); introverts often notice things that extroverts do not—they are keen observers, and therefore, make great social scientists.

They are just less inclined to spew their insights as they occur. Though some of the world’s most influential thinkers, leaders, and innovators have been introverts at their core, our culture of hyper-extroversion unavoidably generates punishment of introversion.

INTERNATIONAL SECURITY AFFAIRS: CAUSE OF WAR, HOW WARS END, MEANINGS OF VICTORY These are three core topics of strategic studies. The ancient Greek historian Thucydides will provide the framework to consider causes of war. A whole literature exists on war termination, which can range in effect from indecisive to concrete and final. We will discuss how time frame perspectives often change evaluations. Churchill wrote: The problems of victory are more agreeable than those of defeat, but they are no less difficult.

These are large topics that the philosophers over history have considered.

ITALIAN AMERICAN MEDIA STEREOTYPE Italians and Italian Americans formed the largest ethnic group to fight in the U.S. military during World War II, and yet their parents were labeled enemy aliens who lived with burdensome restrictions, and in the case of thousands, forced internment and relocation. Italians showed great heroism in every war beginning with the Revolutionary War, and yet they are labeled lovers, and not fighters, according to media stereotypes. Italian Americans are one of the most law abiding ethnic groups in U.S. history, yet films and television shows continue to perpetuate the myth that somehow Italian culture means mafia culture.

Americans were involved in the invention of everything from the radio to the telephone to nuclear power, and yet the media continues to show Italians as tonto or stupid.

History

DONE RIGHT BUT GONE WRONG Hollywood likes to make art that makes money, and the result is sometimes a film that disappoints viewers or that viewers get wrong until the same film emerges as a surprising near-masterpiece long after its release. This series will examine films that disappointed or confused audiences or got sidetracked by misguided promotional efforts. We’ll show Paul Newman as the world’s worst sibling and Sean Connery as the cure for what ails Tippi Hedren. We’ll also watch Tom Cruise dancing in his underwear on his way to a good college, and we’ll view a politically astute film about killing dragons.

THE UNION MOVEMENT IN AMERICA In 1911 the Triangle Shirtwaist fire in New York City killed 150 young women. The women could not escape the fire because the doors to the factory were locked from the outside during the workday to ensure that none of the workers stole material from the company. The tragedy was a catalyst for both increased governmental regulation and increased union recruitment. Although we remember, and will talk about, dramatic moments like this and the first worker’s strike (New York printers in 1794), our story will start with Captain John Smith and his James River settlement in 1607 (he complained about a lack of skilled craftsmen and guild members). Unions have played a critical role in improving worker protection and standard of living in the face of many who tried to deny them both. Unions are much more than just bellicose advocates for protecting teacher pensions in Illinois – perhaps unions were the first civil rights movement.

THE CIA Harry Truman created the CIA when he realized that the disbandment of the OSS at the end of WWII was a mistake. The decision was a good one. However, from the beginning the behavior of the organization did not match their legal mandate and one U.S. president after another had their foreign policy initiatives negatively affected. Cuba, Vietnam and Iraq may be the most obvious failures, but there are more to discuss, as well as the key issue – how can we have a clandestine and covert organization within a democratic framework.

THE FIRST LADIES America’s first First Lady owned slaves. Our current First Lady is the great-granddaughter of slaves. In between, these amazing women reflect the changing roles of women in America. From glamorous superstars to mentally ill hermits, from happily married partners to miserable victims of ill treatment by their husbands, their stories will fascinate you!

BETWEEN NORMALITY AND TERROR: EVERYDAY LIFE IN NAZI GERMANY Eighty years after Adolf Hitler’s ascent to power and the subsequent creation of the Third Reich in Germany, most of today’s research is focused on the system of terror, established by the Nazis, that ultimately led to the death and destruction of millions of people. While we will discuss the role of governmental surveillance and brutality— prominently represented by the secret police GESTAPO and the SS—we will explore first and foremost what daily life was like for ordinary citizens in 1930s Germany. By looking at various societal paradigms, such as education, employment, the role of women and cultural expression, we will gain insights into how the German people were oscillating between normality and terror and how the Nazis were able to turn Germany into a brutal and horrific Dictatorship.

Fifty-six men believed in American independence enough to commit treason against England by signing the Declaration of Independence. This course introduces you to this bold and eccentric group of patriots and tells the story of the consequence of signing that document. The list included speculators, lawyers, scientists, musicians, a fellow nicknamed Old Bacon Face and more. Based on the book Signing Their Lives Away by Denise Kiernan and Joseph D’Agnese.
