Welcome to Fall 2016
Hello! We certainly hope you’re enjoying this gorgeous summer in the
Susquehanna Valley. Did you notice, though? While many of us are still
enjoying our favorite summer pastimes, things are beginning to change: the
sun’s sinking lower in the sky and setting earlier, the evenings are a bit cooler, and students are heading back to school. All sure signs that fall is just
around the corner.
And with fall comes another favorite of so many: our schedule of minicourses for adults, kids, and even your pets!
We continue with a great selection of courses in computer software training,
arts and crafts for both kids and adults, fitness and self-defense classes,
health and wellness, cooking and baking, and more!
We are very pleased to offer a community Youth Mental Health First Aid
training which equips adults to respond to and assist during a crisis or emergency mental health situation in youths age 12 to 18 years. This course will
be helpful for parents, grandparents, coaches, daycare workers, or anyone
who works or plays with young people. See page 7 for more information
about the course and registration information.
Other new selections this fall include unique Floral Designs, Zen
Meditation, Gluten-Free Cooking, Cheese Making, Home Canning, An
Analysis of Economic Fallacies, information on taking a cruise, and some
great ballroom dancing classes!
We also offer career training programs, including Business, Health Care
Management, Hospitality, IT and Software Development, Skilled Trades,
and more. You can learn online at your leisure, at home, or on your lunch
break, whenever it’s most convenient for you.
You can earn your CDL license at our driver training center for a new career
on the road, or update your truck-driving skills in order to secure a better
paying job. Our noncredit programs offer it all when it comes to helping you
gain the work skills you need!
Also check out our ever-popular bus trips on the back cover, and details on
page 17.
Don’t wait to register; our courses will up quickly, so you have the best
chance at getting a seat in the class of your choice if you register early. As
always, we accept all major credit cards, checks, money orders, and cash. You
can mail or fax your registration, or drop it off at our office at the Greenly
Center, 50 East Main Street in Bloomsburg. We’re on the second floor at the
front of the building.
We look forward to serving you, and to providing a fun, relaxing learning
experience. See you soon!

Sorry Virginia, There Is No Santa Claus - An
Analysis of Economic Fallacies (S320A)
"It may be true…'that you can't fool all the people all
the time', but you can fool enough of them to rule ta large
country." Will and Ariel Durant, HistorianIn these increasingly complex economic times, citizens and voters can no
longer aford the luxury of economic illiteracy. This is especially important with upcoming presidential elections
where the rhetoric and promises regarding economic issues
will be over the top. Unfortunately, all politicians, most
professional economists and economics professors, and
almost all business owners seemingly do not understand or
have chosen to ignore the most basic economic laws, and
the consequesces tht occur when they are ignored.You can
breathe easy that this is not a course on economics per se,
but is designed to expose the economic fallacies that have
caused such hardship in today's world. Henry Hazlitt's
classic book, Economics is One Lesson, (Cost $15) will be
used as a reference. Starting with the Broken Window
Fallacy, you will learn the most important lesson to be
applied to economic policy, the idea of that which is seen
and that which is not seen. Each week will cover an economic policy and its inteded purpose then review what the
actual consequences have been, both in the immediate and
long term and not merely for one group but for all groups
of citizens. Hopefully this will generate lively discussion
from the group in the seond half of each session.
A $15 fee will be collected by the instructor to cover
the cost of the book.

contemporary social dance. It is frequently danced to midtempo ballads in 4/4 time that have a characteristic quickquick-slow beat. A classic example is the song Lady In

wisdom for students of today. Taking the Path of Zen is a
