MONDAY888. CINEMA AND YOUR SEARCH FOR

HAPPINESS Val Franco

What truly makes people happy? How do you decide what your calling is in life? These and other profound questions will be explored in this wonderful cinema series from film scholar and cinema writer Val Franco. With comedies, dramedies and a bit of drama thrown in for good measure, Professor Franco has curated a series of films that push us to explore what makes people happy and how they stay that way. Whether it involves traveling the world, growing grapes, maintaining your family’s orchard, or a life-altering change, there are many ways in which our happiness is constantly challenged. With remarkable directors from England, Italy, Israel and America, these films ask how much we take for granted in a world that few of us ever really explore. All films are either in English or in Italian and Hebrew with English Subtitles. Films include Man Up; Lemon Tree; The Secret Life of Walter Mitty; Hector and the Search; Bottleshock; Welcome to the North.

IMPRESSIONISM Carol Tabler

In the mid-nineteenth century, the self-proclaimed Realist, Gustave Courbet, played a conspicuous role as a rebel with a cause, a fighter in opposition to the academic establishment. These lectures will examine Courbet’s role as a catalyst for the younger generation of Impressionist artists.

10 a.m. – noon 3 sessionsJanuary 23 – February 6 Fee: $90

890. LITERATURE, EMPATHY AND ETHICS John Lutz

With its capacity to provoke the imagination to enter unfamiliar worlds and identify with their inhabitants or to find the unfamiliar in what seems familiar, literature has a unique ability to encourage and teach empathy. In witnessing fictional characters undergo suffering, change and transformation, we come to understand the struggles and perspectives of others. We cultivate our empathy, and, in doing so, expand the boundaries of our moral sensibilities. Using drama, fiction and poetry, this course will explore how literature broadens our moral understanding by cultivating empathy for those whose perspectives are marginalized or suppressed.

891. WRITING THE STORIES OF YOUR LIFE, PART II Marcia Byalick

Through a combination of informal lectures, discussion, in-class writing exercises and weekly assignments, you will be encouraged to uncover the wonderful stories hidden within your life experience. Assignments are designed to trigger memories, providing a record of people, places, events and emotions that might otherwise be lost. Studies show that writing slows you down, clarifies emotions, dispels demons…and heals. The process can take you from self-expression to self-discovery. Join author, editor, and 16-time Long Island Press Club award winning columnist Marcia Byalick, in exploring the times of your life. Only those who have taken the previous class should enroll in this intermediate course.

10 a.m. – Noon 6 sessionsFebruary 6 – March 13 Fee: $140

TUESDAY892. HAROLD PINTER ON FILM, PART I:

THE PLAYS Peter Josyph

When Harold Pinter won the Nobel Prize in 2005, the GUARDIAN called him “part of a grand, often hidden tradition of dissent in English culture.” Part I of this series with actor-director Peter Josyph (who has staged Pinter’s work) explores how great actors and directors have accomplished the best film adaptations of Pinter’s plays, such as BETRAYAL (Jeremy Irons, Ben Kingsley); THE COLLECTION (Laurence Olivier, Alan Bates, Helen Mirren, Malcolm McDowell); THE HOMECOMING (Ian Holm, Cyril Cusack); and THE BIRTHDAY PARTY (Robert Shaw, Patrick Magee). The series includes Pinter himself on film in WORKING WITH PINTER.

10 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. 5 sessionsJanuary 10 – February 7 Fee: $100

893. WILLA CATHER AND THE GREAT WAR John Scheckter

Having established herself as a novelist with the Great Plains Trilogy, Cather broadened her scope over the next few years, in two novels that respond to American participation in the Frist World War. One of Ours (1922) splits into two sections: a prairie story that refocuses her earlier concerns, and a war story that examines conflicting American values. The Professor’s House (1925), which has been compared to The Great Gatsby, discusses postwar senses of loss and memorial, amid sharp new economic realities. We will spend two sessions on each novel: please begin reading One of Ours in preparation for the first meeting.

1 – 3 p.m. 4 sessionsJanuary 10 –January 31 Fee: $100

894. FELIX MENDELSSOHN: MORE THAN A WEDDING MARCH Peter Borst

We all know the “Wedding March” associated with Shakespeare’s play, but 16 years earlier Mendelssohn wrote the masterpiece overture: “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.” He was a composer, pianist, organist, conductor, and educator during the early Romantic period, and was very successful in Europe and London. Mendelssohn wrote symphonies, overtures, concertos, oratorios, solo piano pieces, string quartets, piano trios, and much more. During these lectures we will examine some of these works such as the “Italian Symphony,” “Hebrides Overture,” “Violin Concerto in E Minor,” some “Songs Without Words,” and of course, “A Midsummer Night’s Dream Overture.” We also will look at his personal life with his family, especially with his sister Fanny and his wife Cecile.

10 a.m. – Noon 5 sessionsJanuary 17 – February 14 Fee: $125

895. HAROLD PINTER ON FILM, PART 2: THE SCREENPLAYS Peter Josyph

When Harold Pinter was awarded the Nobel Prize, it was said that his work “forces entry into oppression’s closed rooms.” Part 2 of this series with actor-director Peter Josyph (who has staged Pinter’s work) examines Pinter’s superb achievements as a screenwriter, including Joseph Losey’s masterpiece THE SERVANT (Dirk Bogarde, Sarah Miles, James Fox); Losey’s THE GO-BETWEEN (Julie Christie, Alan Bates); Jack Clayton’s THE PUMPKIN EATER (Anne Bancroft, James Mason, Peter Finch); and Karel Reisz’s THE FRENCH LIEUTENANT’S WOMAN (Jeremy Irons, Meryl Streep). The series will also sample Pinter’s work as a director with BUTLEY (Alan Bates, Jessica Tandy), and his work as an actor in THE TAILOR OF PANAMA and MANSFIELD PARK.

896. THE MUSICALS OF ROGERS AND HAMMERSTEIN Marc Courtade

Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II created several of the most successful musicals in Broadway history. Their major works have withstood the test of time and have proven that they are still dramatically valid in the 21st Century. The pair had each worked with other partners before they became a team, notably Rodgers with Lorenz Hart and Hammerstein with Jerome Kern. With Oklahoma! in 1943, they perfected a model that is still the viable standard for musicals. This class will examine the works of Rodgers and Hammerstein, and bring back memories of some of the greatest musicals ever written.

899. SPORTS AS METAPHOR IN THE USA Philip Nicholson

With no universal ethnicity, religion, or national origins in the formation of a national identity, the United States endows its sports heroes and team identities with a greater importance than in most other nations. This two-part reflection on sport and popular mythology may help to reveal the cultural reality of the nation more accurately than any other single aspect of national life. The two discussions will examine the ten top metaphors that sport represents in the USA: 1) Social Mobility; 2) Sex, Race and Violence; 3) Religion; 4) Work and Accomplishment; 5) Democracy and Civilization; 6) Pride; 7) Patriotism and Foreign Policy; 8) Family, Childhood, Parenting, and Health; 9) Business; 10) Social Ills.

902. WORLD POLITICS — THE CHALLENGES OF TRANSITION Ralph Buultjens

A major transition is taking place in world politics and economics. After World War II, a certain set of conditions —political domination by two great powers (U S and Russia), some precautions against nuclear war, a western dominated global economy, limited flows of people and capital, largely secular politics—prevailed for almost half a century. Quite suddenly, in recent years, these arrangements have begun to collapse. Many new urgencies have appeared and a new global agenda is unfolding—the rise of China, the decline of Russia-Europe-Japan, the escalation of terrorism, globalization, an energy revolution, new economic centers, etc. It appears we are in the midst of a historic transition to some new, as yet not clearly defined, condition. What kind of world will emerge from these developments? Who will be the winners and losers? Are the dangers (e.g., North Korea) temporary or will they be continuing elements? How is the world coping? What will be the impact on vital areas—America, the Middle East including Israel, Europe, China? This course will discuss these and other critical issues in the context of current world affairs.

906. AMERICA IN THE WAKE OF OUR RECENT ELECTION David Sprintzen

What did this election tell us about the United States? How are we to make sense of our culture? Our history? What are the prospects for our future? And what might we hope to do about it? We’ll explore these issues in some detail, from a consideration of relevant aspects of our history, to a study of voting data, to reflections on the political, cultural, and regional configurations of the nation and its potential import for the future.

1 – 3 p.m. 3 sessionsMarch 1 – March 15 Fee: $100

THURSDAY907. “THERE ARE TWO OF ME NOW”:

EXPLORING THE PRESENCE OF THE DOUBLE IN FILM AND LITERATURE (PART III) Katie Winkelstein-Duveneck and Jenna Lynch

In this course, we will explore the role of the double, or doppelgänger, in fiction, poetry and film. It can appear as twinning, the mirror image, the evil alter ego, or as a device for articulating the experience of a self-division. We will view films and read a range of fiction and poetry including The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde and works by Frank Bidart. Readings and discussion will serve to inspire our own creative writings. Open to all, whether or not you have taken Part I or II.

10 a.m. – noon 3 sessionsJanuary 5 – January 19 Fee: $90

909. GREAT WOMEN OF COMEDY Sal St. George

Start Your Day with a Smile! Our popular History of Comedy continues with this laugh-provoking exploration of the great women comedians in motion pictures and television.

10 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. 4 sessionsJanuary 19 – February 9 Fee: $100


SAYING FARWELLAdrian Peracchio, former member of the Round Table Council of Foreign Affairs at Newsday, has served at Hutton House as a lecturer for what now, surprisingly, amounts to almost 25 years – an actual quarter of a century. As early as the Fall of 1995, Professor Peracchio was honored by his students with an “Outstanding Lecturer” award presented at a special dinner for him at the Top of the Commons. Since that time, he has continued to be a popular lecturer, always attracting diverse groups of students who come to get a professional’s “take” on the news of the day. As of 2017, however, Professor Peracchio will be moving on to a new adventure – full retirement. He will relocate in another state, where he plans to enjoy not only the outdoors and trips to various points of interest, but perhaps he will finally write his book – something which I think many of us would like to see. So until someday when he perhaps comes back here as a “visiting professor,” please join us in thanking him for all the classes he’s brought us and wishing him well as he moves forward in his journey!

910. GREAT DRAWING BY LESSER KNOWN MASTERS Greg Tsontakis-Mally

Drawing is the graphic language of art and its collection and valuation has been subtler than the more glittering achievements of art history. These lectures will be a pleasure trip through the drawings of lesser known masters of the 15th, 16th, 17th, 18th and 19th centuries. Annible Carracci may not be a household name, and neither are many others we will view, but their drawings will give us a new appreciation of greatness, which is not only found among the well-known.

10 a.m. – noon 5 sessionsFebruary 16 – March 16 Fee: $120

FRIDAY911. THE BOOK GROUP

Margaret HallissyNow in its 19th year, the Book Group meets monthly to discuss literary fiction. This session, we will focus on the intersection of several themes: the role of race and social class in the American girl’s coming-of-age novel. The recently published, and surprise best-seller, Nancy Isenberg’s White Trash: The 400-Year Untold History of Class in America (2016), brings to the forefront an uncomfortable truth: that, far from being a classless society, the United States has been highly stratified from its earliest days. Those who wish to read this historical work will find it a good backdrop to the three novels we will be discussing. Jesmyn Ward’s Salvage the Bones illuminates rural poverty in Mississippi exacerbated by Hurricane Katrina. In Tupelo Hassman’s Girlchild, set in a Nevada trailer park, a girl whose future is bleak places her faith in the Girl Scout Handbook. Patricia Park’s Re Jane, based on Jane Eyre, adds the immigrant experience to the mix of themes as it depicts a young Korean girl who, in her efforts to adjust to American life, escapes the virtual slavery of her uncle’s grocery store in Flushing to work as an au pair for an upscale family of college professors in Brooklyn.

913. THE TENTH MUSE: CABARET FROM MONMARTRE TO MANHATTAN: A CHRONICLE OF CABARET, PAST AND PRESENT Karen Kohler

Award-winning cabaret performer and scholar Karen Kohler unravels the history and essence of this most intimate of musical arts, from its birth in the salons of Belle-Epoque Paris, to its adolescence in the politically-charged Kabarett of Weimar-era Berlin, arriving at its adulthood in today’s cabaret capital of New York City and such other hotspots as London, Amsterdam, and Adelaide. Artists considered include Frehel, Edith Piaf, Yves Montand, Lotte Lenya, Mabel Mercer, Judy Garland, Frank Sinatra, Jacques Brel, and more. This lecture includes film footage and recordings to illustrate cabaret as equal parts pleasurable entertainment and scathing social commentary.

914. YELLOWFACE: PORTRAYAL OF ASIAN CHARACTERS DURING THE GOLDEN AGE OF HOLLYWOOD Philip Harwood

For many years, many of Hollywood’s greatest actors and actresses portrayed Asian characters by applying yellow makeup. We frown upon this today, but we look back in this course at some of the portrayals in these films (seen in their entirety). We venture into the Pre-Code period with The Hatchet Man (1932, Dir. William Wellman, starring Edward G. Robinson and Loretta Young), in which a Tong executioner must eliminate his boyhood friend and then raise the friend’s daughter; The Good Earth (1937, Dir. Sidney Franklin), in which a farmer in China (Paul Muni) is given a freed slave (Luise Rainer) as his wife; Dragon Seed (1944, Harold Buquet), in which a heroic Chinese woman (Katharine Hepburn) leads her fellow villagers against Japanese invaders; Anna and The King Of Siam (1946, Dir. John Cromwell), in which a young English widow (Irene Dunne) accepts the position of teaching the children of the King of Siam (Rex Harrison).

1 – 3:30 p.m. 4 sessionsJanuary 20 – February 10 Fee: $120

916. JOSEPH L. MANKIEWICZ AT 20TH CENTURY FOX Philip Harwood

Director and Screenwriter Joseph L. Mankiewicz directed (and in some cases wrote) eleven films within a six year period at 20th Century Fox. This was a period filled with success and Academy Awards for Direction and Screen Writing. We will discuss and view (in their entirety) three films which were created by Mankiewicz at Fox: In The Ghost And Mrs. Muir (1947 a young widow (Gene Tierney) finds her seaside cottage is haunted...and forms a unique relationship with the ghost (Rex Harrison); In A Letter To Three Wives (1948), Deborah (Jeane Crain), Lora (Linda Darnell) and Rita (Ann Southern) are three friends who all receive letters from another friend, telling them that she is about to leave town with one of their husbands (Jeffrey Lynn, Paul Douglas, and Kirk Douglas). In All About Eve (1950), Eve Harrington (Anne Baxter) is obsessed with Actress and Star Margo Channing (Bette Davis), who in turn, takes the young woman under her wing but this may not be the best for all involved.

1 – 3:30 p.m. 3 sessionsFebruary 17 – March 3 Fee: $90

917. BATTLING THEATRICAL TEAMS Philip Harwood

When we think of a couple, which consists of two people, it could be a husband or wife, or a team. In this course, we will focus on three pairs of theatrical people: two married couples and one former Vaudeville team. In It’s Love I’m After (1937, Dir. Archie Mayo), a squabbling stage couple (Leslie Howard and Bette Davis) get mixed up with an amorous fan (Olivia De Havilland) and her jealous suitor (Patrick Knowles); in The Barkleys of Broadway (1949, Dir. Charles Walters) Josh and Dinah (Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers) split up so the wife can become a serious actress; in The Sunshine Boys (1975, Dir. Herbert Ross) Lewis and Clark (George Burns and Walter Matthau) are a feuding Vaudeville comedy team, who reluctantly reunite for a television comedy special. Why can’t these teams get along?

1 – 3:30 p.m. 3 sessionsMarch 10 – March 24 Fee: $90

FILMPlease be advised that we do not have “raked” floors or stadium seating available for any of our films; therefore we do not offer such courses on a regular basis. When we do, however, it is incumbent upon the student to arrive well in advance of the screening so that he/she may select a proper seat for the viewing. Should you be unable to do this, it is not within the scope of our duties to move people from seats in front of you or to otherwise deprive students in the class of sitting wherever they please. Your alternative, therefore, is, as always, to drop the course if you are in any way dissatisfied.

SPECIAL EVENTS918. EDUCATION POLICY IN NEW

YORK STATE: COMMON CORE, GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS, AND MORE Regent Roger Tilles

The Common Core State Standards landscape continues to shift. Some states have dropped Common-Core-aligned exams, and others have developed their own standards. Some say the discontinuity reflects a larger movement to change testing in schools. Others say insights about student success still can be gleaned from assessment results.

Join us at Hutton House as Regent Roger B. Tilles discusses New York State’s position on all this, as well as other education policies currently under consideration or already in place. Find out about recent changes to graduation requirements and what might be considered in the future.

This important informational session is being offered at no charge so that you may feel free to come, participate, and go away a more informed citizen, so register now. It is possible that this class may close out early due to space limitations; however, a wait-list will be maintained and you will be added to it automatically if you are not able to register immediately.

919. SOME LIKE IT HOT (1959) Sal St. George

In 1959 the subject matter of cross dressing was considered taboo and off-limits for the silver screen. That all changed monumentally due to the deft direction of Billy Wilder and the memorable performances of his all-star cast. Today the American Film Institute has voted this motion picture the Number One Comedy of All Time! Join us when we discover the fascinating backstory of Billy Wilder’s classic comedy, Some Like It Hot. Can you imagine Frank Sinatra in the Jack Lemmon role for this movie? Or Mitzi Gaynor in the Marilyn Monroe role as Sugar Cane? Learn these and other fascinating fun facts about the making of this motion picture.

922. MARTHA GRAHAM & PINA BAUSCH: INTRODUCTION TO CONTEMPORARY DANCE Michelle Brangwen

This class is an introduction to the poetic and sensuous world of modern dance through the exploration of the works of two of the most famous and celebrated icons of the dance world: Martha Graham (1894-1991) and Pina Bausch (1940-2009). Both of these dance artists were bold visionaries who created stunning works of dance theater that were explosive, dramatic and boundary-breaking.

923. BILLY COLLINS: A POET’S UNWITTING INTERPRETATION OF EASTERN PHILOSOPHY, PSYCHOANALYSIS AND THE TALMUD Marlene Paley

As a psychoanalyst, Dr. Paley uses many tools to help patients unlock and untangle the numerous emotional and psychological knots binding them to self-destructive patterns of behavior. At times, psychoanalytic interpretation is enough to provide the insight and understanding needed to resolve these conflicts. In some cases, however, other sources may be utilized to reinforce or better explain either the problem or the solution. In this presentation, Dr. Paley will briefly illustrate how the teachings of Talmud and Eastern Philosophy and psychoanalysis are three paths up the same mountain to self-actualization. She will then draw on the poetry of Billy Collins to demonstrate how these principles provide the therapist with a clinical therapeutic model to help enhance psychologically sound and healthy behavior in his/her patients.

10:30 – Noon 1 sessionFriday, January 13 Fee: $30

926. BERNARD HERRMANN (MASTERS OF FILM MUSIC SERIES) Richard Knox

Known primarily for his decade-long collaboration with the great film director Alfred Hitchcock, Bernard Herrmann (1911-1975) had a long and distinguished Hollywood career dating back to his association with Orson Welles. His first film score, written for Welles’ masterpiece Citizen Kane, put “Benny”, as he was affectionately called by his fellow composers, on the fast track to fame. He proceeded to spend the next 15 years composing classic scores for films such as The Magnificent Ambersons, The Ghost and Mrs. Muir, Portrait of Jennie, and The Day the Earth Stood Still. But it was Herrmann’s compositions for such Hitchcock classics as Vertigo, North by Northwest, and Psycho that have truly endeared him to generations of filmgoers who appreciate the importance of music in getting audiences emotionally invested in the cinematic experience. We will have an opportunity during this program to revisit many of the mood-setting scores Herrmann created right through his final work on Martin Scorsese’s Taxi Driver. Additionally, we will examine the circumstances leading to his creative differences with Hitchcock which terminated their professional relationship.

10 a.m. – Noon 1 sessionFriday, January 20 Fee: $30

927. THE LINDBERGH KIDNAPPING Linda FrankThis was the first case dubbed the “Crime of the Century” by the print and radio media. This presentation includes tracing the evidence used to convict Bruno Hauptman of the kidnapping and murder of Charles Lindbergh, Jr. It addresses how some of the evidence would be analyzed today, and discusses the connection of the Lindbergh case to Agatha Christie’s Murder on the Calais Coach as an interesting side note.1 – 3 p.m. 1 sessionTuesday, January 24 Fee: $30

928. THE JEROME KERN SONGBOOK Richard Knox

Few American composers have contributed as much to Broadway and Hollywood musicals as Jerome Kern. With unforgettable songs such as “The Way You Look Tonight,” “All the Things You Are,” “Smoke Gets In Your Eyes,” and “Old Man River,” Kern has left an indelible mark on the history of popular music in America. To provide a nostalgic retrospective on his career, this program will draw on the talents of such notable artists as Judy Garland, Howard Keel, Kathryn Grayson, Rebecca Luker, Paul Robeson, and Irene Dunne. Join us and revel in some of the greatest melodies of the Great American Songbook.

929. SOLVING ANCIENT MYSTERIES Linda Frank

This lecture illustrates how modern forensic techniques are used to unravel mysteries of the past, such as those surrounding Otzi, the Ice Man, the Bog People of Denmark, the Peruvian mummies, and even the vampire folklore of Eastern Europe. Otzi is probably the most analyzed set of remains in the history of archaeology. Glimpse the past lives and cultures of these ancient, mysterious beings.


930. PLANTS, POISONS AND PLOTS Linda Frank

This lecture not only includes illustrations of the various plant poisons and their uses or misuses, but illustrates how famous mystery writers have employed them in their books. Although poisoning deaths in modern times are drug overdoses or carbon monoxide poisoning, that doesn’t stop mystery writers from using poisons as their weapon of choice.

1 – 3 p.m. 1 sessionTuesday, February 7 Fee: $30

931. TO POSSESS A HUMAN SOUL: SLAVERY AND THE AMERICAN PRESIDENCY Marilyn Carmino

The history of slavery is largely anonymous. While the American presidency is well documented, the stories of those enslaved by these men are often relegated to a footnote. Because of their proximity to the presidents, much is known about them but rarely heard by the general public. The goal of this presentation is to tell their stories and “hear their voices.” We will begin by examining the writings of former slaves known as slave narratives. This genre brought to light the abominations of slavery. Then we will focus on portraits of those held in bondage by our presidents. What were their daily lives like and how did they make sense of their existence as human beings? What were our presidents’ views about the institution itself? During our journey you will meet a Revolutionary War hero; a celebrated White House chef; learn about the first White House memoir written by a slave; relive dramatic escapes; become acquainted with the first African American celebrity athletes; attend an important White House dinner; and much more. These vivid personal profiles are certain to enlighten and inspire you.

10 a.m. – Noon 1 sessionThursday, February 9 Fee: $30

932. ART, NOT ART Linda Frank

What techniques are used to determine if a new-found art piece or artifact is authentic? Follow the path taken by art historians and scientists to see if that Rembrandt you discovered in Gramma’s attic is the real McCoy, or Rembrandt! What tests do scientists employ on paint and canvas? What is the input from the art historian? Who has the final say? A point of interest in this lecture is the heartbreak, confusion and ultimate redemption of the art work confiscated by the Nazi’s in WWII.


933. THOSE CSI SHOWS, FACT OR FICTION Linda Frank

This presentation addresses what happens in an actual forensic lab, from fingerprint analysis to blood work in the serology lab. It explains how various types of evidence are collected and analyzed, enabling fans of forensic science to know what they are looking at in crime TV shows and films. The high-tech nature of these modern forensics labs makes us wonder whether anyone ever gets away with murder, or anything else, when forensics are involved.


934. UNDERSTANDING–IF WE CAN–THE 2016 ELECTION James Coll

Few election cycles have been as exciting and unpredictable as the recent contest for who would be the 45th President of the United States. In this non-partisan presentation, we will discuss some points of interest that have been raised and others that have been largely ignored, in order to get a postmortem sense of the road to the White House in 2016.

12:30 – 2:30 p.m. 1 sessionThursday, March 2 Fee: $30

935. WORDS AND MUSIC BY STEPHEN SONDHEIM Mel Haber

In this program, we’ll trace the career of Stephen Sondheim, starting from his early days when he wrote the lyrics for West Side Story and Gypsy. Then we move to his work as the writer of both words and music for such shows as Company, Sunday in the Park with George, and Sweeney Todd. Among the many memorable songs we’ll see performed on video will be “Send in the Clowns,” “Not While I’m Around,” “Not a Day Goes By,” and “Being Alive.” Among the many great artists who will be singing his songs will be Bernadette Peters, Mandy Patinkin, Sarah Vaughan, and Elaine Stritch.

936. MADAM JUSTICE: WOMEN OF THE SUPREME COURT James Coll

“I urge the Senate’s swift bipartisan confirmation so that as soon as possible she may take her place on the Court and her place in history.” Since President Ronald Reagan spoke these words at the appointment of Sandra Day O’Connor to the Supreme Court in 1981, three other women have been nominated and serve on the Highest Court in the land. In this lecture, we will discuss the lives of the Madam Justices and their impact on our understanding of the Constitution, the law and our nation.

12:30 – 2:30 p.m. 1 sessionThursday, March 9 Fee: $30

937. DIVIDED AMERICA – PERSPECTIVES AND PROSPECTS Ralph Buultjens

The recent election has revealed the depth of the divisions in American society – divisions that are evident in almost every area of American life. This raises several questions: Why are these divisions so intense today? Are they lodged in the American past or are they reflections of our current social condition? Will they endure and shape the future or are they short-term concerns that will diminish? What can be done to reduce the factions and fissures and how dangerous are they? Is the spirit of bipartisanship and cooperation so fundamental to America’s progress being replaced by the ethic of contention? How does this compare with developments in other countries (eg., is Brexit in Britain reflective of similar tendencies)? Do demagogic leaders and movements exploit these situations and are existing conditions strong enough to cope with such dangers? Can democracy cope with these stresses and tensions or will authoritarian answers become more popular? Prof. Ralph Buuljtens, well-known scholar and analyst of international affairs, will discuss these questions and their consequences in the context of recent events in America and other major nations.

10:30 a.m. – Noon 1 sessionFriday, March 17 Fee: $30
