If you've studied French in the past – even as long ago as high school – and can construct a basic sentence in French, join us in improving our abilities to communicate orally and in writing. The class uses a text, but doesn't always follow its sequence. If you are completely new to French, this is not the class for you.
The recommended book, Easy French Step-by-Step by Myrna Bell Rochester, is available at Barnes & Noble, Amazon, and other booksellers.

- The Power of Words: Euphemism, Metaphor, and Mindset

This is a participatory, discussion-based class exploring the hidden assumptions in our language. Does the way we speak influence and manipulate the way we think? Our language is replete with militaristic euphemisms and metaphors, political code words and dog whistles, and hidden assumptions about power, patriarchy, hierarchy, and identity. Many of those words and phrases are so ingrained in our lexicon that we are oblivious to the potentially manipulative power they hold over us and our way of thinking.
This class counts toward the 3-class limit.
