    Special Programs in November for Your Delectation

    The MA Health Care Crisis (Nov 5th

    )

    Saturday, November 5th, from 10:00–12:00 noon the Amherst League of Women Voters Health Care Committee will offer LIR members a chance to learn about the Massachusetts health care crisis. The Health Care Committee, including Kathleen Bridgewater, Johanna Plaut, Joan Rabin, Diana Stein, Cynthia Brubaker, and Jackie Wolf, will speak about the health care crisis and the

    rationale behind the Tolman/Hynes bill. The presentation will include a comparison of the Tolman/Hynes bill and competing health care bills. A Question and Answer period will follow the presentation. Please join the LIR Special Programs Committee at this very timely presentation at Hampshire College, Franklin Patterson Hall, Room # 80, West Lecture Hall.

    State Rep Ellen Storey to speak to LIR (Nov11th

    )

    On November 11th at 4:00 p.m. the LIR Special Programs Committee will host Rep. Ellen Storey for a “What’s Happening in Boston” event. Ellen Story is the first woman to represent the district of Amherst and Granby in the Massachusetts Legislature. She is currently serving her sixth full term. She is highly regarded by her constituents and is the recipient of several awards for her

    outstanding work on behalf of the area. She will talk about some of the current issues in the state legislature in Boston, and will respond to questions from 5CLIR members. Join us in the Faculty Lounge at Hampshire College for news and refreshments. The Lounge is located in Franklin Patterson Hall on the campus.

    November 17th

    5CLIR Roundtable Discussion: WAL-MART (Nov 17th

    )

    The Special Programs Committee has scheduled a roundtable discussion on the possible impact the creation of a new WAL-MART Supercenter might have on the town of Hadley and its environs. Norm Winston will moderate a discussion sparked off by Frank Heston, LIR member, who will be favoring the establishment of such an enterprise in our area, and David Elvin,

    a member of Hadley Neighbors for Sensible Development, who will present the opposing view. Hadley Neighbors is a group of Hadley residents who have worked together for the last three years to bring new planning ideas and increased citizen participation to their town of 5,000. Elvin will be joined by Alan Eccleston, another Hadley resident who shares

    concerns about incompatible large-scale development in Hadley and its effects on the wider region. Hadley is a community in transition, with working farms, 2,200 homes, and many large commercial developments on Route 9. Hadley Neighbors supports growth that is compatible with the character of the community, as well as its roads and infrastructure. In 2003-04, the group was a key player in a town-wide debate about rezoning for a Lowe's store – and in securing a $410,000 commitment from the developer to protect farmland elsewhere in Hadley when the store is built. In 2005, Hadley Neighbors is raising questions about the compatibility and

    impacts of a proposed WAL-MART Supercenter, a store more than five football fields large, that is proposed as part of an expansion of the Hampshire Mall. The Supercenter would be built between Target and the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service abutting the Norwottuck Rail Trail. It will be the largest single structure in Hadley, drawing more than 6,500 car trips per day. Discussion will be opened to the audience for questions and comments.

    The Special Programs Committee of LIR hopes that this will be the first of such meetings in which controversial subjects such as this can be discussed.

    “Slavery and Its Legacy” – the Picture Gallery

    Panelists (l to r) Dean Onawumi Jean Moss, Preston Smith, Dean Robinson and Howard Parad spoke from different academic and personal points of view.

    Panelists John Bracey, Onawumi Jean Moss and Preston Smith prepare to speak about issues raised in “Slavery and Its Legacy.”

    Howard Parad, member of the panel, states his views on racism in history.

    The “Follow-up Conversation” attracted a mixed group of about 100 college students and 5CLIR members on October 19th.

    SLAVERY AND ITS LEGACY CONVERSATION DRAWS

    MIXED AUDIENCE OF 100 TO AMHERST COLLEGE

    The follow-up Conversation to the “Slavery and Its Legacy” series drew around 100 college students, 5CLIR members, and community citizens to Amherst College recently. The well-received panel spoke movingly about the recent Katrina Hurricane response, the history of slavery in the U.S. back to the writing of the Constitution, the striking discrepancies in health care, the persistence of racism in America and the political masking of race for class as we analyze poverty. Audience participation highlighted comparisons between idealism in the thirties and political apathy now, on the progress in diversity that had been accomplished and on concern about future solutions to the many problems raised. Comments afterwards offered considerable praise for the panel, especially for the "storyteller" Onawumi Jean Moss, Associate Dean of Students at Amherst College. ----Chuck Gillies

    Newcomers’ Reception

    Although one of our more recent “traditions,” the Newcomers’ Reception has to be the most delightful of them all! New members since the last October are invited to celebrate their entry into our local LIR – The Five College Learning in Retirement organization. This year, on Sunday, October 23rd, the Membership Committee hosted the event from two to four o’clock in the Great Room in the Meeting House of the Lathrop Community off Bridge Road. Guests were invited to partake of an array of Membership Committee baked goodies, as well as cheese and fruit, soft drinks, wine – and chatter. Then, everyone sat in a circle (in chairs!), and our President, Dorothy Gorra, welcomed one and all. Next, Pat Keating, who was one of the founding members of our LIR gave a history of the local organization.

    Programs (other than the seminars) which may be of short duration (a canoe ride on the Connecticut River, a trip to an historic building or site, for example) or a series of events like the discussion of Slavery which may take place over a long period of time, were mentioned and recommended. The need for moderators of seminars was emphasized, as was everyone’s ability to moderate, whether an expert in a field or a recent investigator of a subject. Then, each person in the circle gave a very brief autobiography, which is most interesting in that there is such diversity in all aspects of our lives. We finished up the afternoon with more cookies, conversations, and a renewed conviction that our 5CLIR is a vibrant part of our lives. ----Helen Seyfert

    Kozol Identifies “The Shame of the Nation”

    About 18 members of 5CLIR attended a lecture on October 25 by Jonathan Kozol, educator and author, who presented an indictment of the nation for allowing segregation to return to the public schools. His appearance was the third in a series of lectures on the theme “Law and Dis/Order” sponsored by the Weissman Center for Leadership and the Liberal Arts at Mount Holyoke College. Paul and Harriet Weissman, founders and patrons of the Center, were in the audience. In his talk, Kozol emphasized that schools that were segregated 25–30 years ago are almost as segregated now as they were then, and schools that were integrated in the era of the Civil Rights movement are again segregated. Speaking to a full house in Chapin Auditorium on the Mount Holyoke campus, Kozol passionately and eloquently summarized his latest book, The Shame of the Nation: The Restoration of Apartheid Schooling in America. With a mixture of humor and deep emotion, Kozol recounted anecdotes of children and teachers he has met, data he has collected, and stories of his own life. He was particularly critical of the lack of access to quality pre-school education for the children of the poor. As he says in his book, “The governmentally administered diminishment of value in the children of the poor…starts during their infant years and toddler years when hundreds of thousands of children in low-income neighborhoods are locked out of the opportunity for pre-school education for no reason but the accident of birth and budgetary choices of the government….”

    Earlier in the day, 15 members of 5CLIR joined with an equal number of Mount Holyoke students in a free-wheeling discussion of the issues raised by Kozol’s book. The discussion was organized and hosted by Professor Lois Brown, Director of the Weissman Center, and facilitated by Anna Melnick, a pioneer in the Head Start Program in New York City in the 1960s, and Dottie Rosenthal, who coordinated a project in the 1990s in Long Beach, CA to encourage African-American and Hispanic students to become science teachers. Both students and 5CLIR members contributed enthusiastically to the discussion, which Lois Brown hopes will be the beginning of a continuing conversation between the two groups. The next event in the “Law and Dis/Order” lecture series will feature Cristina Rathbone, journalist and author of A World Apart: Women, Prison, and Life Behind Bars, and Tara McKelvey, an American Prospect senior editor who has published widely on Iraqi women in prisons and domestic violence. That session, entitled, “Public and Private Testimonies: Women and Prisons in America and Abroad,” will be held on Thursday, November 3, at 7 p.m. in Gamble Auditorium. The concluding lecture in the series will feature The Honorable Joyce London Alexander, first African-American Chief U.S. Magistrate Judge and respected defender of equity and civil rights. Judge Alexander will speak on “Judges, Citizenship, and Justice” in Gamble Auditorium at 7 pm. on Thursday, November 17. All events are free and open to the public. ----Dorothy Rosenthal

    A Peek in the Door

    Do you ever wonder what goes on at other seminars that you thought about taking, but didn’t? For instance, do they really get to eat in Food and Film? It seems that the Taiwanese film Eat, Drink, Man, Woman brought on a severe case of the munchies, and Ina Luadtke, Ann Levinger, and Naomi Yanis accompanied their discussion of the film with a large bag of Chinese biscuits. Most seminar participants were surprised to learn that fortune cookies are not really Chinese at all, and the goody bag contained many delicious Chinese cookies and sweets that no one in the seminar had tasted

    before. The sweet/salty rice biscuits took top honors. Nina Scott’s comment: “Lesson learned and digested.” Nina (co-moderator of Food and Film with Jane Price) brought her tried and true toasted pecan cake to the New Members’ Tea, with a view to serving it to the Food and Film seminar if it proved successful at the tea. It was very well received, and word has it that there may be some well-fed people at the last meeting of the Food and Film seminar. What film they will be watching has not been divulged.

    The recipe:

    Toasted Pecan Cake

    1 c. soft butter or margarine 3 c. cake flour 1 3/4 c. sugar 2 t. baking powder 1 t. vanilla 3/4 t. salt 3 eggs + one yolk 3/4 c. milk 1 c. chopped pecans (toasted for 10 min. in an oven preheated to 200°F.) Cream butter or margarine, add sugar and beat until light. Add vanilla and eggs, beating thoroughly. Sift flour with baking powder and salt, then add alternately with milk. Fold in nuts. Grease and flour a 9" tube pan; line bottom with waxed paper. Bake at 350°F for 1 hour, or until done. Turn out cake onto a rack after ten minutes, and peel off paper. Turn cake right side up, cool thoroughly. Sift confectioners' sugar over the top. This keeps and freezes well. [Editor’s note: it keeps only if you hide it.]

    Meet the Moderators for Spring Semester!

    On Sunday, November 20, moderators of Spring semester seminars will be ready to explain their offerings to 5CLIR members during the Meet the Moderators program scheduled from 2 until 4 p.m. at the Amherst College Alumni House. The Curriculum Committee promises a wide range of selections, ranging from science and music to history, literature, and art. Moderators will be at their stations until 3:30 to answer questions and present handouts or other information to entice members to register for seminars. The approaching holiday atmosphere will be enhanced with refreshments, thanks to the efforts of Joice Gare and the Meetings Committee. Members will have an opportunity to socialize with new and

    old friends in LIR, as they discuss the seminars. Packets containing spring catalogs, information on Winter Programs, and Learning in Community projects will be available for pickup. Registration for Spring seminars may be completed immediately at the Alumni House or sent through email or regular mail to the 5CLIR office. The close of registration for lotteried Spring seminars is Dec. 9th, allowing time for any subsequent lottery for oversubscribed seminars and mailing of enrollment notification letters before the holidays. LIR members are always eager to begin preparing for their next seminars! See you on Nov. 20th!

    Curriculum Committee Co-chairs, Sheila Klem and Eleanor Shattuck

    The Person Behind the Keyboard

    Some of you may not know that Bobbie Reitt is the person who works behind the scenes on the Seminar Catalog each semester. Each season she prepares a summary of all seminars being offered – a necessary task that is time-consuming and probably unnoticed by most of us! Bobbie moderated a seminar on World War I in 20th-century Literature this Fall, which is not surprising when you know that she received a BA and an MA in English at Duke University and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, respectively. Years later, she returned to school, studying publishing history in the American Studies program at Emory University, where she received a PhD in Liberal Arts in 1985. Bobbie founded Reitt Editing Services in 1965 and for many years edited scholarly books for university presses. She is still editing books, now specializing as a medical editor working mostly on geriatrics textbooks, electronic books, and websites. Over the years she has taught seminars and workshops on a variety of subjects, mostly having to do with publishing and literature. Most recently she lived in Highlands for 14 years with her husband Pete (also an LIR member), and they now make their home here in western Massachusetts, where they enjoy the company of their grandson.

    Learning in Community Projects to Begin Soon!

    5CLIR members and Associates have an opportunity to engage in a new type of learning. Different from our traditional seminar format, these activities will place teams from LIR into the community to offer interests and expertise, to learn from the unique aspects of the project, and to follow through with a culminating product. A Learning in Community Task Force has been meeting regularly this Fall and has developed a framework for the following projects for the Spring term:

    Learning with the Treehouse Foundation and its connection with the Easthampton Schools; particular appeal for Tutor/Mentors

    Learning with the Trustees of Reservations and its current Petticoat Hill project;

    particular appeal for environmentalists. To find the details about these opportunities to learn in new ways, please come talk to us at the Meet the Moderators Open House at the Amherst College Alumni House on November 20th.

    The Learning in Community Task Force: Joan Hastings, Chair, Naomi Yannis, Sheila Klem,

    Howard Parad, Ruth Hooke, Leo Sartori and Gillian Morbey

    Fall Semester 2005 At the beginning of the semester, the make-up of our

    seminars is a shifting, fluid landscape, but the following list of seminar participants is correct at the time of printing. The moderators are picked out in italics.

    Of Spanish and Guitars

    I'm looking for some persons who would be interested in meeting informally and playing the guitar. Likewise, I wonder if there are some like-minded individuals out there who would care to meet informally and refresh their knowledge of Spanish by engaging in conversational Spanish. My name is Greta Marsh, I’m an LIR member, and my phone number is (413) 527-8827.
