It will look at families with dysfunction and difficulty, as well as families that function well, sometimes in spite of themselves. During class we will focus on themes from a variety of movies. Each class will include a teacher presentation, excerpts from the film, with comments, questions, and discussion. This fall we plan to view the following movies: Ordinary People (1980), Scenes from a Marriage (1984), What’s Eating Gilbert Grape? (1996), In Her Shoes (2005), and CODA (2021). The list of the movies is subject to change. Ways to view them will be provided before the start of the course so that students may view the entire film prior to class.

Modern thinking and great technological advances have shown that there is far more to the Universe than what we can see and measure. Vera Rubin, an astronomer associated with the Carnegie Institute, showed that galaxies rotated in a way that was at odds with the accepted laws of motion. This led to the introduction of “Dark Matter”, a substance that can neither be measured or observed directly. Similarly, the observed phenomenon that the galaxies are not only rushing away from us, but are doing so at an ever increasing rate, has led to the acceptance of a new component in the Universe called Dark Energy. Learn more about this mysterious part of our Universe this spring. No technical or mathematical background necessary. Note: Course will meet on campus in an in-person environment.
