Great Decisions Discussion Group Planned at CLV

The Great Decisions discussion program has been added to the winter offerings through the Carroll Lutheran Village Lifelong Learning Series. Great Decisions is a national program produced by the American Foreign Policy Association, which seeks to convey a clear understanding of current worldwide issues that impact the United States.

Each topic in the series is addressed through readings, videos and a facilitated discussion. Participants are expected to have read the applicable articles in the Great Decisions briefing book prior to each session.

The 2019 topics include:

• Refugees and Global Migration
• The Middle East: Regional Disorder
• Nuclear negotiations: Back to the Future?
• The Rise of Populism in Europe
• Decoding U.S.-China Trade
• Cyber Conflicts and Geopolitics
• The United States and Mexico: Partnership Tested
• State of the State Department and Diplomacy

The eight-week program will be held on Thursdays from 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. in Krug Chapel Auditorium at Carroll Lutheran Village beginning January 17, 2019. Cost is $40 per person or $60 per couple. Registration for Great Decisions is open through December 28.

Additional courses through the Lifelong Learning Series are also open to older adults in the community. Winter offerings include art, yoga, tai chi, Zumba, technology, brain fitness, and more.
