Spring 2023 Program – Call 914-606-6748 to register
Welcome to our spring 2023 semester. We want to thank you for being so supportive and flexible as we continue to explore the Hyflex technology. Our post-semester 2023 survey results showed us that most of you prefer in-person classes; the rest are split between Hyflex and zoom classes. We believe this flexibility is important and the technology will continue to improve. This semester we are pleased to offer eight classes: four in-person courses, three Hyflex courses (simultaneous in person or zoom), and one Zoom class. There are several new changes in start times and number of sessions, so please read this letter carefully.
Our spring semester begins on Wednesday, April 12 and Friday, April 14. Please see below for class times and prices. There will be an additional one-time semester fee of $9.75.
Here are the semester’s highlights:
On Wednesday:
- There are two offerings beginning at a new start time: 9:15. Linda Sledge will offer The Many Voices of America: The Crossing in person (6 week class, $80), while Robert Fischer will lead Great Decisions Discussion Group (4 week class, $60) at the same time on Hyflex.
- At 11:00 Dwight Goodyear will guide us through Plato’s Republic on Hyflex (6 week class, $80).
- At 1:00 Jane Roos will return via Hyflex with Museums for the Modern Age: Origin Stories (6 week class, $80).
On Friday:
- At 9:15 Michael Shamosh will lead Conversations about Money and Finance in person (6 week class, $80).
- At 11:00 A la Carte will return with six unique in-person presentations (6 week class, $80)
At 1:00 there will be two choices:
- Jim Burnett and Derek Wright will lead an in-person discussion based on the book Why the Innocent Plead Guilty and the Guilty Go Free (6 week class, $80).
- Bill Costanzo will offer three Zoom-only sessions on Faith in Film (3 week class, $50).
Any class offering a Zoom option will open the zoom room 15 minutes before the class starts, rather than the 30 minutes previously offered.
We are looking forward to making it a true Collegium semester: stimulating discussions, friendly exchanges of ideas, smiles, and laughter. We are always ready to encourage, support, even hand-hold members as needed. Please feel free to reach out and ask for help. Invite family and/or friends to join you and recreate the atmosphere of collegial learning. We’re looking forward to seeing you again!
Warmest regards,
The Collegium Board
