MEMBERSHIP DRIVE

W ith our membership decreasing for the past few years, we are mak-

ing an extra effort to attract new members. Some excellent ideas

for action have been suggested, and we are implementing some, but the

best recruitment tool has always been word of mouth.

We are asking you, the membership, to talk to your friends and neighbors.

Pass along your copy of the Club Times. Talk about the forty-plus Activi-

ties we have, from large-group lectures to small-group discussions, challenging games from

trivia to chess, arts pursuits from performance to participation, foreign language instruction

and conversation, and much more! Not to mention meeting new neighbors with similar inter-

ests!

Also, see Mentors for New Members below, a new effort, designed to retain new members.

Volunteer today.

MENTORS FOR NEW MEMBERS

In an effort to retain all of our members, the Membership Committee has embarked on a new

initiative – assigning an active member to assist new members in becoming acquainted and

taking advantage of all that we offer at the Club.

Volunteers would be expected to spend time with their protégés, maybe over lunch, discuss-

ing all the opportunities that membership brings. Perhaps offer to accompany the new person

to some activities and recommending others, make introductions to the appropriate group

leaders, Also to encourage attendance (and sit with) at a lunch or dinner – or both. Generally

be available to answer questions and become a new friend.

The purpose is to get the new members involved in Activities and/or Committees, which is

inherent in active membership. And we also encourage better socializing at receptions and

other Club events.

Please call Holly or Gayle Austin (407-620-5663) if you are willing to help.

BOARD RECEPTION REPORT

APRIL 17, 2019

T he University Club has been in existence since 1934 as an organization dedicated to intellec-tual pursuits, but the last twenty years have seen a fascinating growth in the number and type

of activities offered to members. These programs would not be possible without the enthusiasm

and commitment of our more than forty Activity Leaders, who give their time and skills to provide

the programs that entertain, enlighten, and educate our membership.

On April 17, the Executive Board hosted a special reception to thank those Intellectual Activities

Leaders for their good work. Several of the Leaders were lauded for their service: Martha Wil-

liamson, our Librarian, and our retiring Book Review Leaders Dot Cline and Linda Dunlap, were

honored for more than eighteen years of leadership. The photo above shows Leaders recognized

for leading their respective groups for more than ten years. The first six Leaders took over their

positions in 2008, while Don and Pat have been at the head of their respective groups since 2007.

Also noted were nine Leaders who’ve led their Activities for more five years, and twenty-four

who have joined us more recently, including five who have picked up the gauntlet just this year.

These volunteers are the heart and soul of our Club; we simply couldn’t do it without them, and

the Club Board showed its appreciation with a bountiful display of wine, champagne, and tasty

tidbits. The Board also recognized the special insight the assembled Leaders have in understand-

ing the needs of the membership. Board members joined each table to discuss various needs and

to get opinions on improving the Club and increasing membership.

All in all, the reception was a fun and productive way to bestow a well-deserved treat on our

greatly appreciated Intellectual Activity Leaders!

CLUB CALENDAR: Week of June 3, 2019

Mon. June 3 <<HISTORY>> The History Group presents Linda Dunlap speaking about Queen Victoria. Queen Victoria,

Britain’s longest reigning monarch until the current Queen, is a favorite subject of historians. More books have

been written about the Virgin Queen’s childhood and her almost sixty-four-year reign than any other of Eng-

land’s rulers. So what is there possibly left to be said? Join us for Club member Linda Dunlap’s presentation of

Queen Victoria and the era that was named for her and find out. Linda has been a member of the University

Club since 1999 and served on the executive board as VP Membership. She has recently, after eighteen years

of outstanding leadership, stepped down as co-chair of the Club’s Book Review Group. A fiction writer, her

short stories have been published both in national and international literary magazines. Co-Chairs: Sherry Levy

Tue. June 4 <<PHILOSOPHICAL DISCUSSION>> I am told that schools that are teaching constitutional law and graduat-

ing lawyers pay more attention to case law than to the Constitution itself. Does this mean “the law of the case

(some case, somewhere, sometime) becomes the law of the land? Do you see any problem with that? What is

social justice? What is foundational in the philosophy of atheism/agnosticism? Does the logic hold? Truth and

consequence. Man is born “good” but behaves badly everywhere? The meaning of life? What confers meaning?

Time is running out, what should I be doing? Bring your own topics and friends! Chair: Don Cain

CONTIGO PERU

Peru: Land of Music and Dancing

W hat comes to mind when exotic Peru is mentioned?

Machu Picchu, Inca Indians, the Amazon River, the

Andes Mountains?

Dancing, though, should be at the top of that list, as Peru takes

dance very seriously. There are many genres—to name a few,

dances that are related to agricultural work, hunting, and Car-

naval (which varies from region to region). The most interna-

tionally known dance in Peru is the Marinera Nortena. This

dance represents a man’s court-

ing of a young woman.

Tonight’s exciting program will bring several dancers, many of them children and

youth, all brightly costumed to represent the three regions of this lush land: Jungle,

Coast, and Mountain. The color, traditions, and culture will be demonstrated by part-

ners, perhaps doing the Marinera, Sayas, Tondero, or Huaylarsh dances.

A moderator will introduce each dance and explain its heritage and significance.

We are fortunate to have Manuel Sauri, a native of the Coastal region of Peru, as our

Facilities Manager. Manuel arranged for tonight’s program.

Book early—you won’t be disappointed!

Mon. June 10 <<HISTORY’S MYSTERIES>> This June we will be showing Part II of the 107-minute film, Out of the Blue.

Considered one of the best ever of the UFO genre, this film can change the mind of skeptics. It features many

notables such as Astronaut Dr. Edgar Mitchell, Russian General Leonid Alexiev, President Jimmy Carter,

Cosmonaut Major General Pavel Popovich, and many, many more. It includes interviews with high-ranking

military and government personnel as well as such controversial topics as nuclear weapons going offline with

out a backup system and the existence of life on other planets. Many think that both believers and doubters

should see this presentation. Leader: Ed Levine



5:45 p.m. EVENING CURRENT EVENTS - Discussion of important issues of the day. All are encouraged to contribute

to selecting topics and taking part in the discussion. Chair: Aaron Liberman

Tue. June 11 <<ECONOMICS FOR THE LAYPERSON>> Nominal vs. Real vs. Rate of Change—Which is Right?

Among the constant flurry of economic data are several versions of the same information. How do you tell the

difference? Which is the best data to use, and what is the best way to use that data? A single point in time? A

trend? The rate of change? Join us in the library as we explore several ways to navigate the economic calendar!

Chair: Matt Giles

Thu. June 13 <<BOOK DISCUSSION—FICTION>> Rules of Civility, 2011, by Amor Towles. On the last night of 1937,

a chance encounter and its startling consequences propel Katey Kontent on a year-long journey from a Wall

Street secretarial pool toward the upper echelons of New York society and the executive suites of rarefied

environs. There she will have little to rely upon other than a bracing wit and her own brand of cool nerve. With

its depiction of New York’s social strata, its intricate imagery and themes, and its immensely appealing charac-

ters, Rules of Civility won the hearts of readers and critics alike. Available in the Club Library and Public Lib-

rary. 350 pp. Chairs: Laura Pruyn and Linda Carpenter

2:00 p.m. EXERCISE GROUP - Focuses on strength, balance, and flexibility. Wear comfortable clothes and rubber-

Mon. June 17 <<HISTORY>> There Were Sonnets Before There Was Shakespeare will be presented by Lynn Schiff-

horst. During the reign of Henry VIII, one of the most glamorous and brutal in English history, a young

courtier, Sir Thomas Wyatt, introduced into English an Italian form of poetry, the sonnet. His most famous

sonnets, never published until after his death, were dedicated—in fierce love and even fiercer resentment—to

Anne Boleyn. Arrested at the same time she was, he narrowly escaped execution and was left to write “These

bloody days have broken my heart.” Lynn Schiffhorst is a poet, teacher, and amateur historian, who has lec-

tured at Road Scholar for more than thirty years. She will discuss the story of Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503-1542)

and examine the dangerous world in which he lived. Co-Chairs: Sherry Levy and Ovid Vitas



Tue. June 18 INVESTMENT DISCUSSION - An informal discussion of ideas and strategies for investing. We welcome

ing linguistics of our native language! Chair: Paul Breines


tions, contact Max at [email protected] or 407-625-1664 for more information or to get your name

on the email list. Chair: Max Reed



6:00 p.m. TECHNOLOGY TODAY - A discussion on tips and tricks, emerging trends, and everything else that is

tech related. No experience necessary. During each meeting, topic suggestions will be taken and then dis-

cussed. Bring your questions and comments and join the discussion! Leader: Joe Davis

Wed. June 19 CURRENT EVENTS - (Lunch - Thai) Chair: Judy Beck Moderator: Michele Levy

1:00 p.m. <<CLASSICAL MUSIC>> Carnegie Hall comes to the University Club of Winter Park—The Fernwood

Quartet. The Quartet was formed in 2016 by the string section of Orlando’s Alterity Chamber Orchestra.

The members of the quartet have played with various groups and orchestras internationally as well as in

Central Florida. Fernwood’s mission is twofold: to bring central pieces of the classical string quartet reper-

toire to Central Florida to focus on contemporary music for string quartet, and thus giving local and interna-

tional composers an outlet for their works. Chair: Susan Pins

1:00 p.m. CANASTA - This is a casual, coed game, with both men and women enjoying the play and the company.

Feel free to come and observe or to participate. However, it is essential that participants inform me in ad-

vance, via email, that they will be playing: [email protected]. Chair: Gayle Austin

Thu. June 20 EXERCISE GROUP - Focuses on strength, balance, and flexibility. Wear comfortable clothes and rubber-

soled shoes. If you have them, bring light weights, exercise balls, and/or bands.

7:00 p.m. <<FILM NIGHT>> The Red Violin. In present-day Montreal, a famous violin known as “the red violin” is

being auctioned off. During the auction, we flash back to the creation of the violin in 17th century Italy, and

follow the violin as it makes its way through an 18th century Austrian monastery, with a violinist in 19th cen-

tury Oxford, in China during the Cultural Revolution, and back to Montreal, where a collector tries to estab-

lish the identity and the secrets of the red violin. Every aspect of this film reflects upon the love inherent and

in its making. The cinematography, editing, and design are brilliant. But above all else floats the music soul-

fully played by violin virtuoso, Joshua Bell. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., movie starts at 7:00 p.m. Chair: Ovid

Vitas

Fri. June 21 SPANISH—ADVANCED CONVERSATION - To maintain your Spanish-language skills, sit in with an

WEEK OF JUNE 24, 2019

Mon. June 24 <<DOCUMENTARY CINEMA>> How the Beatles Changed the World. This engaging and fairly compre-

hensive documentary examines the musical and cultural impact the Beatles had on the world, as told through

interviews and archival footage of the legendary British band. This fascinating story of the social, spiritual, and

musical revolution that was ignited by the Beatles, and how they were among the first successful rock bands to

write their own material, to use the recording studio as a creative lab, and to herald the idea of albums as song

collections representing one artistic theme and vision. Chair: Ovid Vitas



1:00 p.m. <<NONFICTION BOOK DISCUSSION>> The Fifth Risk by Michael Lewis, 256 pages (2018). Lewis, a vet-

eran journalist who in earlier books explored sports statistics and the financial disruption of 2008, here exam-

ines what happens to government agencies when staffed by people with little interest in operating them. Chair:

John Perry

5:45 p.m. EVENING CURRENT EVENTS - Discussion of important issues of the day. All are encouraged to contribute

to selecting topics and taking part in the discussion. Chair: Aaron Liberman

Tue. June 25 <<PHILOSOPHICAL DISCUSSION>> “The Rediscovery of the Mind.” We will view and discuss this

lecture from Professor Steven Gimbel’s Great Course DVD: Redefining Reality: The Intellectual Implica-

tions of Modern Science. In the first half of the 20th century, psychology had the luxury of debating whether

a subconscious mind existed and whether scientific methodology required limiting the field to the study of

stimulus and response. But after the horrors of World War II, psychology changed. The specter of the Holo-

caust raised troubling questions about the human mind and its relation to authority. In the scientific world, the

reaction to Nazi atrocities was shaped by what are perhaps the three most famous psychological experiments:

Stanley Milgram’s obedience study, Solomon Asch’s groupthink study, and Philip Zimbardo’s Stanford

prison study. Taken together, they stand as a challenge to the Enlightenment picture of humans as rational

beings, leaving us with serious concerns about ourselves. Chair: Richard Kronenfeld

P ublic Relations Committee for the University Club could use a few more members to help spread the word. We

send out press releases, post events on local website calendars, keep up the UCWP Facebook page, deliver our

UCWP brochures to local libraries, churches, and others. We could use some people to help our Intellectual Activi-

ties leaders make up flyers that could be forwarded to family, friends, and neighbors to alert them of upcoming

events at the UCWP. Please contact Barbara Buchele for more information: [email protected].

IMPORTANT NOTICE

I t has come to our attention that a member or members have discouraged some applicants from

applying to the Club by asserting that a bachelor’s degree is required of all members. This is

patently not true and can be very hurtful. Further, spreading that rumor can discourage applicants,

to the detriment of the Club.

I refer you to Article 1.2.2, Specially Qualified Members, of our Bylaws. All of it will not be

quoted here, but is posted on the bulletin board in the foyer. Please read it.

Essentially, life experience and career success can substitute for a degree. There are some addi-

tional requirements but all are easily accomplished. Also, the quota requirement of twenty-

percent acceptance of the number of members admitted in the prior twelve months has never, in

recent history, been invoked.

To all who have held this mistaken belief, please stop spreading this rumor. All members are ex-

pected to treat all new and prospective members with warmth and respect. Please do not declare

this fallacy to be accurate.
