The Wright State University Retirees Association (WSURA) will offer a third round of Live & Learn Workshops in the fall of 2018. Live & Learn Workshops are designed to stimulate discussions and develop new skills. WSURA members, spouses, friends and university employees are welcome.
Two topics are planned for the fall at this time: Gary Barlow will present on the basics of art and Donna Schlagheck will coordinate a presentation or panel discussion on politics prior to the election. Retirees with ideas for other topics of interest, should forward them to the workshop organizer, Marlene Bireley, at mkbpho@aol.com.
The second year of Live & Learn Workshops was held in April at the WSURA office in the WSU Foundation Building across from the campus. After a modest beginning in 2017, the number of presentations was expanded from two to four topics, and the number of participants tripled from nine to 27 this year. A number of participants attended multiple sessions so that each workshop served from 10 to 14 people each.
Topics covered were:
- Comparative Religion;
- Current International Issues;
- Improving Your Understanding of Smart Phones and Tablets; and
- Introduction to Genealogy.
