Presented by Ian Clarke, Hatter Planetarium Program Director and Adjunct Assistant Professor of English 9:00 11:00 p.m. AC 107: An Evening at the Gettysburg College Observatory Activities for this annual favorite course will include tours of the Gettysburg College Observatory and our local night sky. We ll start with a look at the array of equipment used in our astronomy survey courses, upper-level lab courses, and student-faculty research. Weather permitting, you ll see how we use our larger optical and radio telescopes to acquire the data that informs our labs and research projects. We will also have smaller telescopes and binoculars set up to observe a few seasonal favorites and give you some pointers to guide yourself around the night sky. This promises to be an exciting and unique Gettysburg alumni experience, so come out and interact with the astronomy faculty. Please note astronomical observatories are purposefully remote; as part of the course takes place outdoors, please plan your attire accordingly. Presented by Ian Clarke, Hatter Planetarium Program Director and Adjunct Assistant Professor of English, Craig Foltz, Lab Instructor, Physics, and Jackie Milingo, Associate Professor of Physics & Astronomy FRIDAY JUNE 1 9:00 10:30 a.m. AC 208: The Supreme Court Justices: Politicians in Robes? When the New York Times columnist Linda Greenhouse retired from many years of covering the U.S. Supreme Court, she wrote a column, the gist of which was that she had always fought to avoid thinking that the justices were simply politicians in robes, but she was reluctantly giving up the fight. We will examine some past and recent opinions of the Court to try to make up our own minds the extent to which the justices are political, and explore whether or not it matters if they are. Presented by James Todd 65, Lecturer in Politics, University of Virginia 9:00 10:30 a.m. AC 209: In Search of King Arthur: Echoes of Avalon in the Landscape of Britain If the legend we know as King Arthur ever did walk the earth, where in Britain might we pick up his trail? Ancient tales leave us clues more suggestive than they are definitive. The oldest tomes of Dark Age Britain are a patchwork of references to Arthur, his castles and forts, his cities and capitals. Through the science of archaeology we may search the landscape for confirmation of these battlegrounds and battlements. But even science offers more intriguing questions than it does empirical answers. Still, with medieval manuscripts as our guides across the rolling hills and vales of Britain, we may begin to plot some points in the geography of Avalon. Furthermore, by delving deeply into the soil itself, we may capture glimpses, however fleeting, of the halls and walls that contained his fabled warriors. Drawing upon his forthcoming book Arthur: God and Hero in Avalon, as well as his Gettysburg College course of the same name, Professor Fee, will take us on a journey through the misty past of Dark Age Britain, illuminated by evocative images taken on-site in Britain in March 2017 by Fee and his research assistant Jerome Clarke 17 (Young Arthur to Fee s Aged Merlin!). Presented by Christopher Fee, Professor of English 11:00 a.m. 12:30 p.m. AC 210: Historical Highlights from Special Collections Special Collections and College Archives is home to an extraordinary variety of primary sources. During the school year, students come to Special Collections to research and explore historical collections. This Alumni College course will showcase our most requested items, such as our Declaration of Independence in German, our Shakespeare 2nd Folio, and the Vietnam War photographs of Stephen Warner, Class of 1968. The hour-long session will include viewing time with the selections, a behindthe-scenes tour of Special Collections, and our World War I exhibit, 12 13

Beyond Futility: Expectation and Impact of the First World War. Presented by Carolyn Huber Sautter, Director of Special Collections and College Archives 11:00 a.m. 12:30 p.m. AC 211: Gettysburg College: A Lutheran College for the 21st Century Interfaith World As a Lutheran College, Gettysburg has a rich pool of resources from which to draw as it seeks to form its students into global citizens. Part of this formation includes wrestling with the big questions that involve religion and spirituality, which relate to individual identity as well as the identities of different cultures and societies around the world. This course will introduce these resources, invite conversation around this process of formation, and discuss some contemporary situations where these issues are particularly relevant today. Presented by Kristin Largen, Associate Dean of Religious and Spiritual Life/College Chaplain 2:00 3:30 p.m. AC 212: Stick it to em: Vaccination, Controversy, and Public Health Edward Jenner, HIV, polio, and Osama bin Laden are linked in history through vaccination. Since the development of the smallpox vaccine in the 1790s, vaccination has become one of the most significant contributors to public health. Historical controversies, government missteps, and scientific challenges in vaccine development require new approaches to develop and deploy vaccines to reduce the global burden of disease and death. Presented by Vincent Venditto 03, Assistant Professor of Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of Kentucky 2:00 3:30 p.m. AC 213: Tour of the Majestic Theater 4:00 5:30 p.m. AC 214: Everything You Always Wanted to Know About French Wines but Were Afraid to Ask! A fun and interactive look at why France is always considered the standard of comparison for the world s wines. We will learn about the various French wine regions, grapes, styles, and food pairing ideas. Most importantly, we will taste a few exceptional values and answer questions. Kenneth Scupp 77, Co-owner Top Terroir, LLC 4:00 5:30 p.m. AC 215: Stephen Warner 68 as a Typical/Atypical Representative of the Draftees During the Vietnam War The experiences of Stephen H. Warner, Gettysburg College Class of 1968, in the Vietnam War are in some ways representative of the quandary faced by many young men in the later years of the war. Those of us who shared those experiences were faced with difficult decisions as to what to do about the prospect of being drafted to serve in a war to which we were either opposed or were convinced was no longer winnable, or both. Steve was not representative, however, in the way he ultimately chose to resolve his dilemma. After vowing not to serve in Vietnam, he did so and voluntarily risked his life to make his time in there meaningful. As an Army Public Informational Specialist, Steve tried to emulate Ernie Pyle of World War II fame by writing profiles and stories about the common enlisted soldier. He was killed in Vietnam on February 14, 1971, while accompanying American combat engineers who were building a road to support the South Vietnamese invasion of Laos. We will revisit some of the lingering issues surrounding the war and the draft, as well as reviewing Steve's experience. Presented by Arthur Amchan, Attorney and Administrative Law Judge Arthur is also the author of Killed in Action: The Life and Times of SP4 Stephen H. Warner, Draftee, Journalist and Anti-War Activitst. You may remember the downtown Majestic Theater as a movie house. This historic theater, which Gettysburg College owns and operates today, was built as a vaudeville and silent movie theater in 1925 and renovated by the College in 2005 into a first-class performing arts center. Take a behind-the-scenes tour of the Majestic and enjoy many unique architectural features, including its beautiful stage, decorative pressed tin ceiling, stained glass chandeliers, iconic dressing rooms, and two cinema theaters. Learn about the Majestic s rich history and hear about performances today. Presented by Jeffrey Gabel, Founding Executive Director of the Majestic Theater, and Jean LeGros 73, Alumni Director Emeritus 14 15

Alumni who want to be near friends or bring their families back to campus for a casual weekend generally enjoy staying in the residence halls. However, if you are looking for a romantic or full-service getaway, the halls are probably not your best option. Staying in the halls is convenient and economical, but it is not luxurious (remember how uncomfortable those mattresses were?). If you prefer hotel accommodations, please make your reservations soon! To see a list of local hotels/motels, go to www.gettysburg.edu/ reunion and click on Accommodations and Dining in Gettysburg. How much will campus housing cost? 49 per person per night, with a special rate of 185 for single families of 4-6 per night. See the registration form on page 19 for details. What should I bring if I stay in a residence hall? Linens, blankets, pillows, small bath towels, cups, and soap are provided but not replenished throughout the weekend. Alumni should bring personal care items such as bathrobes, slippers, hangers, washcloths and additional towels, pillows, blankets, fitted sheets and bedding, if needed. Alumni with small children should bring supplies with them, or rent equipment locally at Gettysburg Rental Center (717-334-0021). Which residence halls are used, and what are the rooms like? All rooms are air conditioned. Residence halls offered are both apartment style and hotel style. Each apartment sleeps approximately 4 6 people, and features a common living area, bathroom, and kitchen. Sleeping rooms are equipped with single beds. Some sleeping rooms have only one bed, while others have two. Hotel style residence halls feature two single beds and private bathroom. Please indicate special accommodation needs on the registration form. How is housing assigned? On-campus housing is available to alumni who are registered for Reunion Weekend events. The Alumni Relations Office will assign on-campus housing to alumni who register for it by May 21. (See the registration form on page 19 for details.) Consequently, housing assignments are not made until the week before Reunion Weekend. Every effort will be made to house classes together. Walk-up registration for housing on May 31 June 2 will not be available. May I request roommates? Alumni may request to be housed with or near other specific alumni. Roommate requests will be honored only if both parties request each other. If alumni do not state specific roommate requests, they may be assigned room/suite mates. How do I check in and out of oncampus housing? Room assignments and keys may be picked up at registration in the Jaeger Center lobby during the hours listed on page 16. Check-out is Sunday by 11:00 a.m. Be sure to return keys to the Jaeger Center lobby.
