Shed Light on the Dark Ages in "Journey through the Middle Ages" at Saint Joseph's College
Monday, October 08, 2007
The Office of Continuing Education and Summer Programs at Saint Joseph's College will be offering a series of classes this fall entitled "Journey through the Middle Ages," open to all interested community members. The series of four classes will meet Tuesday evenings on October 9, 23, 30, and November 6 from 7-9 p.m. CDT in the Rev. Charles Banet, C.PP.S. Core Education Center for a fee of $125 per person. The classes will culminate with a trip to Medieval Times in Schaumburg, Illinois on Nov. 11, with cost and transportation included in the fee.
Each class in the series will focus on a different aspect of life in the Middle Ages, including music, art, food, and health, and will be taught by a different master of each trade. Heading up the health class will be SJC's Associate Professor of Biology and world-renowned entomologist Neal Haskell, while the College's Associate Professor of History Ilicia Sprey takes on the art class. Eric Braun, SJC's Dining Services general manager, will lead the food class, and guest lecturer Barry Reasoner, head of the music department at Tell City High School in Tell City, Indiana, will direct the music lesson.
