Some of you know I have been teaching some classes for OSHER, the life-long learning program at Carnegie Mellon University here in Pittsburgh. Well, I am teaching two classes in the winter term and one (Golden Age Mystery Writers) was fully booked within 8 hours of the sign-ups opening, and a waiting list is started. My other class, The World of Agatha Christie, up for its second outing, has only one seat left!

PugMom (nicoleg76) | 2014 comments Very cool!! How long are the classes? A semester? Maybe we can read something from your syllabus next month!

There are four sessions,, 90 minutes each, for four weeks. I can share some things once they are finalized!

Yes, yes, yes! I second NicoleG's request! We've been good, Teach, so give up with the goods! lol

There's a huge need for goods like Mr. Pghfan's classes. So, a Christmas thought & prayer goes forth that more like-kind material is created in this new world! Amen! (Too much junk, not enough good stuff out there, IMHO)!

PugMom (nicoleg76) | 2014 comments I think it would be interesting to read something from Mark’s class and maybe he could share some extra opinions and insights from the students. It would be like having “Guest PIs” except they wouldn’t know 😂
