The on-going Great Books Discussion group will be finishing up Immigrant Voices. We will then take up Standing Down: From Warrior to Civilian, which includes: Fiction, nonfiction, poetry, essays, and memoirs that speak to past experiences, concerns, and aspirations of those who have served in the military and made the often-difficult transition back into civilian life. Selections range from Homer's Iliad to personal accounts of members of the service who have served in Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan.

Classes will meet from 4 to 5:30 p.m. from September 13 through October 25.
