The Great Courses
If you are itching for education these courses are quite good. Maybe, we could start up informal groups to talk about these courses. Some are available for loan from the Lake County Library System.
Maybe, we can get the library systems in the Villages' area involved with sponsoring some of these groups like providing a meeting room or even get the Villages Recreation Centers involved???
These would be private groups of people meeting though and hopefully not involve government actions. Study groups in other words talking about something picked by the members.
I have heard of local churches sponsoring these kind of study groups and their topic was one of these Great Courses.
