A Short History
The Center for LifeLong Learning was formed in 2000 by the merger of the
Living and Learning Institute (LLI) and Lorain County Community College’s
The Academy for Senior Studies (TASS).
A task force of members of both groups worked for over a year to
determine the best way to merge LLI’s and TASS’s somewhat different
approaches to offering courses and activities to people 50 and over.
Merging the two groups combined the strengths of LLI’s peer-led group
with the strengths and support of the staff of the Center for LifeLong
Learning and Lorain County Community College. Affiliations with LCCC,
Oberlin College and the Elderhostel Institute Network were maintained.
The Center for LifeLong Learning offers a rich smorgasbord of classes,
discussion groups and trips in convenient locations – LCCC, Avon Lake,
Brunswick, Lorain, North Ridgeville, Oberlin and Wellington. Participants
enrich their lives and enjoy each other’s company with:
• In-depth study and discussion in literature, art, science or
world events.
• Excursions to plays, concerts, Cleveland’s sacred landmarks,
historic estates and gardens or the Cleveland Air Show.
• Classes to enrich daily living on computers, understanding
investments, physical fitness and golf, or better driving.
• Fun classes on becoming a mystery shopper, watercolor lessons,
sharing travel adventures or making crafts, some classes to
include grandchildren, too.
The curriculum committee meets monthly, working with The Center for
LifeLong Learning’s program coordinator to plan, develop and implement
the Center of LifeLong Learning’s courses and programs. Suggestions for
programs and volunteers are always welcome.

Post-Impressionism:
from Cezanne to Van Gogh
The Dark Continent:
Sub-Saharan African Art
The period of art that follows
Impressionism is generally called PostImpressionism. But rather than a period
of decadence as its title implies, it was a
period of tremendous growth that put
into place the important tenets that would
lead to Modern Art. The art of Cezanne,
Van Gogh, and Gauguin directly lead to
the art of the 20th century. The personal
stories of these artists are riveting.
Spiritualism, masks, divination, initiation
rites, leadership roles, and ancestor beliefs
all play important roles in the formation
of African art. This program will follow
the development of African art from its
earliest beginnings during the ancient Nok
and Benin cultures through the colonial
period and into the 20th century.

the Art of Our Time
Painters like Matisse, Picasso, and Dali
created bold and challenging works of
art that put emphasis on a new abstract
use of space. From the bold colors and
forms of Expressionism and Cubism to
the disturbing imagery in Surrealism,
the art of this period is challenging to

FINANCIAL / WEALTH MANAGEMENT
Building an Independent & Conservative
Investment Portfolio
“Know what you own, and know why you own it.”
– Peter Lynch
With Financial Institutions advertising at record rates, many
investors feel bombarded by sales tactics and boilerplate advice.
This class will review case studies of a typical retired person’s
portfolio of mutual funds, stocks, and bonds. You will learn what
type of investment choices you have, and how these asset classes
could improve your current retirement lifestyle. After we learn and
review what is inside that sample retirement account currently, we
will build a conservative model portfolio together, with today’s
technology to assist us. This three-session class will give you a great
overview of what conservative investing is all about. In today’s
volatile economic world, investors must know how conservative
investing really works. No matter what level of investment
education you may have, this class aims to educate and improve
your financial decision-making ability in retirement. You may bring
your spouse or guest at no additional cost. All you need is your
curiosity and questions to bring to class.
About Mr. Josh Ortner, CTFA: Mr. Ortner started his education
right here at LCCC, before graduating from Kent State University
with his bachelors in business administration. When working
for a financial institution after college, he realized that the highsales pressure tactics they use, just don’t work anymore. After
experiencing 5+ years in owning his own investment company,
he became a Certified Trust & Financial Advisor, which requires
weathered experience in trust fund investment management, and
trust fund tax management.

Dead Men Tell No Lies or Do They?
A one-hour course on how to read between the lines and obtain the
most information you can from those old tombstones we often see.
Other than the blatantly obvious information such as names, dates
and sometimes cause of death, did you know that you can often
determine whether a husband or a wife passes first? How about
fraternal affiliations? A PowerPoint presentation of cemeteries
from the United States and various countries will lead you down
the path to understanding the history of a region or just better
understand what our forefathers had in mind when they erected

HISTORY OF ROCK ’N’ ROLL
WITH DEB WENTZ
Early Rhythm and Blues
Deb had studied music as an undergraduate. After a career in social
work, she earned her Master of Arts in Popular Culture from Bowling
Green State University. As part of her coursework, Deb completed a
year-long internship in the Education Department of the Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame and Museum. She continued to volunteer there,
as has served as a docent since 2000, giving tours to visitors at the
Museum. From 1999-2013 Deb taught a continuing education series
for social workers at Lakeland Community College, entitled “Utilizing
Music in Therapy.” She has developed and taught classes in Cultural
Diversity to staff, foster parents and adoptive parents at Catholic
Charities. Deb also has a long involvement with community theatre,
including Olde Towne Hall Theatre and Ohio Community Theatre
Association. Now that she is retired from social work, Deb is fulfilling
her dream of teaching classes on rock ’n’ roll history.
From Big Bands to Rock ’n’ Roll: How America
moved from Benny Goodman to Elvis
This class would look at the changing socio-economic conditions in
post-WWII America that resulted in the evolution from big bands
to rock ’n’ roll. The class will listen to samples of how music evolved
from big bands to rhythm and blues, then to rock ’n’ roll, and look
at the role that disc jockeys – including Cleveland’s Alan Freed and
Bill Randle – played in popularizing rock ’n’ roll.
Course Number: NMUS 116C
What was this music that descended from the big bands and was
the predecessor to rock ’n’ roll?
Listen to the rhythm and blues singers from the late ’40s to early ’50s:
Big Joe Turner, Louis Jordan, Ruth Brown, and Etta James. Learn
about the stylistic elements that characterized early rhythm and
blues, and listen to the original versions of songs that in a few years
became rock ’n’ roll hits.

Yoga
This five-week course will utilize the science of Yoga, incorporating
breath, gentle stretching, strengthening, deep relaxation, affirmation
and meditation as a tool to experience a heightened sense of well
being in and out of class. We are what we have always imagined
ourselves to be. The imagination has been limited or conditioned by a
culture which sees itself as, at best, minimally well or happy. We must
outgrow the cultural conditioning that discourages our continual
growth and expand our range of motion, physically, mentally,
emotionally and spiritually. We will explore the myths of aging
which prevent our becoming more expansive. We will look at our
life-style choices, modify or expand them. We will look at changing
diet to accommodate our new bodies. We will reaffirm ourselves as
dynamic beings. The needs of each student will be acknowledged.

RELIGION
The Churches Around the Square in Elyria
The village of Elyria was officially founded in 1817 by Heman
Ely. By the time Ely died in 1852, Elyria had five churches and a
population of more than 1,500. In the center of Elyria is Ely Square,
with historic monuments, a veteran’s memorial, fountain, gazebo
and the historic Lorain County Courthouse. In the subsequent 200
years, the area around the square grew to become the exciting heart
of this industrial city and county seat.
Join us, with no walking steps involved, as we explore the churches
around Ely square. Starting with the First Congregational Church
and its Tiffany windows, we will view the outside, inside, and
uniqueness of each the many denominations that have called this
area “around Ely Square” home.

Letters From Earth
This book was posthumously published by Samuel Clemmons’

“Something Rotten” at Playhouse Square
“Drop Dead” at Chagrin Valley Little Theater
This “big, fat NYC hit off-off Broadway” is sure to amuse you this
spring as part of the Broadway Series at Playhouse Square. A
hilarious hit set in 1595 is the story of two brothers who set out
to write the world’s first musical after a local soothsayer predicts
the future of theater involves singing, dancing and acting!
The NY Times describes it as “The Producers + The Book of
Mormon x The Drowsy Chaperone, Squared.” It should be very
funny. We will have a preshow dinner at Nido’s in Little Italy and
go for Broadway Buzz prior to the performance.

Ohio History and Tree Tops –
The Garfield Home and More in Mentor, OH
It’s a day away in Lake County to tour and visit the former home
and National Monument of President James A. Garfield – a
beautifully restored nine-room farm house that was even the
site of many campaign speeches during Garfield’s presidential
run in 1880. We’ll explore this wonderful property, dine at Skye
Bistro and continue our day with a visit to the historic Kirkland
Church of the Latter-Day Saints (beautiful in its simplicity) and
end our day “among the tree tops” at The Holden Arboretum.
Walking and tram tours are both available. If you choose, also
walk the Murch Canopy Walk exploring both forest and canopy
from 65 feet above the forest floor.
Let’s head for the east side of town to see this non-stop comedy
in Chagrin Falls. A cast of washed up actors hatch a scheme
to save their flagging careers by appearing in a wild murder
mystery directed by a megalomaniacal Broadway director.
However, a real murder is afoot which has them trying to save
not just their careers but the show and their very lives! This little
theater does an exceptional job – great casting of characters and
a truly funny cast! Preshow dinner on your own at Beachwood
Mall, which has a large assortment of options – a nice chance
to try a new eatery since their options are definitely different
than our own. Please reserve early – this is a small theater and
I definitely need a good idea of how many tickets the box office
needs to hold for our group.

Star Wars Exhibit from the Smithsonian
Iconic costumes from a galaxy far, far away are presented in the
Smithsonian traveling exhibition, pulled from the collection
of the George Lucas Museum of Narrative Art. The exhibition
features 60 of the finest hand crafted costumes from the first
seven Star Wars films. Some of the costumes on display were
worn by Obi-Wan Kenobi, Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader and
Chewbacca. We love this tour that also features a visit to the new
Underground Railroad Museum, the Newport Aquarium (one
of the best in the country), and the American Sign Museum
(featured in a major article in the Cleveland Plain Dealer). We
overnight at Belterra Casino Resort where dinner and breakfast
are included. A special group meal is included at the Hofbrau
Haus, featuring authentic German food.
You loved “Monet” and “Pharaoh,” and the next big exhibit at
the Cleveland Museum of Art is Art Deco in the Jazz Age & the
Roaring 20s. The amazing colors and exotic Orientalism of the
Ballet Russe in the early 1900s had a profound influence in Paris.
Its artists and the art movement of the time were Futurism,
Cubism and Constructivism. From the culmination of these,
emerged the Art Deco style, which evolved through the war
and into the Roaring 20s. During this time the French Music
Hall Revues became multisensory extravaganzas, with sets
designed by the greatest artists: Erte, Picasso, Paul Poiret and
Brunalleschi. This was the Jazz Age. Icons like Josephine Baker
and Louise Brooks became trend setters for Gartons, the French
version of the 1920s Flappers. The tour includes viewing of the
exhibit, along with a docent-led tour of some of the galleries by
art instructor, Sean Crum. Lunch is on your own at the museum.
We end the day with a tour of the Terminal Tower Observation
Deck. The bus will pick up at two locations for this tour – the

Use the Past to Serve the Present:
Archaeology and Politics in China
This three-part lecture series will introduce some of the most
dramatic discoveries in 20th century Chinese archaeology, and how
some of the artifacts uncovered have been employed in 20th-21st
century Chinese politics.
The first lecture will discuss the use of antique artifacts as tools of
legitimation during imperial China, then will cover the art of the
Shang dynasty (c. 1600 – 1046 BCE) and ways archaeological proof
of the dynasty’s existence, and therefore the antiquity of Chinese
culture, contributed to the beginnings of China’s 20th century
resurgence as a world power.
The second lecture will examine art of the Warring States Period
(c. 450-221 BCE), and how a large set of bells from the period
discovered in 1977 appeared both during a ceremony for the return
of Hong Kong to Chinese rule and in the Beijing Olympics.
Finally, the third lecture will detail the spectacular archaeological
discoveries associated with the tomb site of China’s First Emperor
(259 BCE to 10 September 210 BCE), including the famed TerraCotta army and other recent findings, and will examine how the
legacy of this complex and controversial historical figure has become
intertwined with that of Mao Zedong (1893-1976), the founder of
the People’s Republic of China.
Protecting Health on a Warming Planet
Course Number: NCLL 314C
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change refers to
this period as the era of “climate opportunities.” The Lancet
Commission on Health and Climate Change wrote that “tackling
climate change could be the greatest global health opportunity of
the 21st century.” These prestigious groups outline the risks and
challenges posed by climate change.

The Auto’s Future: Fast, Furious and Uncertain
The auto industry is going through an amazing transformation.
Through capacity reduction, redesigned labor contracts, financial
restructuring, staff reductions, new technologies, and globalization,
the domestic industry has become far more competitive. However,
turbulence in many forms will be with us for a very long time.
The industry is an extremely important part of our economy,
particularly in the Midwest. A number of concerns that could limit
industry performance will be discussed. A revolution is occurring
in both product and process technologies. Vehicles are moving
to electrification, but advanced internal combustion engines will
provide lively competition for some time to come. The self-driving
vehicle could yield enormous benefits, particularly in safety.
The presenter is David E. Cole, Chairman Emeritus, Center for
Automotive Research, University of Michigan
