Because winter is fast approaching, I decided to head for warmer, though not warm, El Paso, Texas. I've been here many times before since being retired; and enjoy the town. At the downtown Senior Center, the staff even speaks English on my behalf--everybody else is Latino! The food is above average for the federally funded lunch program. The Salvation Army center maintains a dinner program all week long, for which I'm thankful. My accommodations are terrific, though I'll probably have to go into cheaper housing at some point.
I mention these descriptive points about El Paso, but the most outstanding I've kept to a separate paragraph--namely, the University of Texas at El Paso, UTEP. For seniors the unversity runs an outstanding Lifelong Learning Center; and the philosophy department is terrific, also. I intend to get ideas for the blogs from attending events at UTEP come January!
Current progress: I'm in the midst of writing a very important--to my mind--piece on the interplay between mentiorship and teaching that will be finished certainly by the end of the month. Enjoy!
