Would you like to sharpen your mind, join in a good discussion and have fun doing it? Case Western Reserve University’s Office of Continuing Education is sponsoring a course called “Springboard to History” at the Bay Village Library. The eight-week class will be held Mondays at 10 a.m. beginning March 15.

This promises to be a provocative, historic overview of mankind which will start at the beginning and finish with today, journeying from the Stone Age to Bill Gates. The text used for the class is “The Human Story,” by J. C. Davis. The teacher/leader will be Dick Michel.

The fee for the course is $60. Advance registration is recommended; walk-ins may sign up as space allows. Class size is limited to 15 to allow for discussion.

Courses are offered across the Greater Cleveland area, and I have attended every one in Bay Village for several years. We are a fun group and hope you will join us. We often go to lunch after class which makes for a nice morning and early afternoon.

For more information or to sign up, call Marianne at (440) 808-0076.
