OLLI Offers Past Courses on Public Television - October 11, 2007
PITTSFIELD - The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute makes its television debut this fall when it airs some of its most popular courses from past semesters on CPAT. OLLI is a volunteer-run educational organization that offers courses and events at academic and cultural institutions throughout the Berkshires.
Now OLLI’s programming is free and accessible to all lifelong learners in the Berkshires. It recognizes that many persons in the area cannot attend courses on-site because of a lack of transportation, physical disabilities and other limitations. It has pledged to make stimulating and exciting adult learning experiences available to all its local citizens.
The first course is a six-part series on "The Great Depression: A Storied History."
Professor David Auerbach originally taught the class at Berkshire Community College in 2005. It examines the political and economic events such as the stock exchange crash and the development of new government agencies. The series received excellent reviews from the students who attended. It airs the week of Oct. 21 through Nov. 11. Two other courses will be aired later in the fall.
Local participating cable-access stations are Community Television of the Southern Berkshires, PCTV, Willinet and Northern Berkshire Community Television. Check local public access television schedules for information about dates and times. Detailed schedule information is also available by visiting public access cable television Web sites or calling local stations. |
