Do You Have to Love Your Family? Presented by Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Florida Atlantic University – Jupiter The Bible commands us to love God, our neighbors, and even strangers—yet it is surprisingly less explicit about loving our own parents, children, or spouses. This intriguing question invites us to consider: What do we truly owe our family? In this thought-provoking seminar, we’ll explore the complex dynamics between parents and children, as well as the often-complicated bonds between siblings. We’ll also challenge conventional assumptions by asking a fundamental question: Why get married at all? Examining family relationships through the lenses of religious tradition and secular ethics, this provocative discussion explores love, responsibility, obligation, and belonging—and what it really means to be part of a family. Join OLLI at FAU Jupiter for a fascinating exploration of the relationships that shape our lives.

Supplements: Valuable or Valueless? What You Should Know About This Multi-Billion-Dollar Market Presented by Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Florida Atlantic University – Jupiter The supplement industry is a multi-billion-dollar business, with tens of thousands of products marketed to consumers in the United States. But how many supplements actually deliver on their promises? Unlike prescription medications, dietary supplements do not undergo the same premarket approval process by the FDA, leaving consumers to navigate product claims, labeling, potential contaminants, and aggressive marketing. This eye-opening lecture takes a closer look at the science and safety considerations surrounding vitamins, minerals, and other popular supplements. Explore what research reveals about their potential benefits and risks, how to evaluate marketing claims, and what consumers should know before adding supplements to their daily routines. The goal is to provide practical, evidence-based information to help you become a more informed consumer and make thoughtful decisions about whether a supplement is truly worth the investment. Join OLLI at FAU Jupiter for an informative look behind the label—and discover what the science really says about supplements.

Debates Over Nonviolence Since 1850 Presented by Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Florida Atlantic University – Jupiter How have nonviolent movements debated the use of force throughout history? Drawing on examples from McGetchin’s new book, The Boycott or the Bullet, this thought-provoking lecture explores the internal debates that have shaped nonviolent movements since 1850. Travel through history from European labor movements to Mahatma Gandhi’s Indian independence struggle and Martin Luther King Jr.’s U.S. civil rights campaigns. Behind these historic movements were often intense debates among activists about maintaining discipline, resisting calls for violence, and achieving meaningful change through nonviolent action. Discover how leaders and activists navigated these tensions and why nonviolent movements have, at times, succeeded in steering supporters away from violent revolt toward organized resistance, boycotts, and other forms of peaceful direct action. Join OLLI at FAU Jupiter for a fascinating exploration of the history, challenges, and enduring debate surrounding nonviolent social change.

The Many Fates of Plastic Debris in the Ocean Presented by Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Florida Atlantic University – Jupiter In the six decades since plastic entered the consumer marketplace, it has become one of the most common forms of marine debris and a growing environmental challenge. Plastic’s remarkable durability and versatility have transformed everyday life—but those same qualities allow plastic waste to persist and spread throughout the marine environment. This engaging lecture explores what happens to plastic once it enters the ocean. How does marine life and the broader ocean environment respond? What happens as plastic breaks down into smaller particles and degraded polymers, and how can scientists track and measure these changes? The program will also examine how researchers communicate their findings to policymakers and the public and what we can learn from current scientific research about this complex environmental issue. Join OLLI at FAU Jupiter for a fascinating look beneath the surface at the journey of plastic in our oceans—and the science helping us understand its impact.

Is It Legal or Is It Right? Presented by Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Florida Atlantic University – Jupiter Most people view the criminal justice system as a straightforward system of laws and rules, but the reality is often far more complex. In policing, courts, and corrections, some of the most difficult decisions involve ethical questions that cannot always be answered by the rulebook. This thought-provoking presentation explores the gray areas where law, ethics, fairness, and justice intersect. Beginning with the foundations of ethical reasoning, the program examines why an action can be legally permissible yet still raise serious moral concerns. Through real-world examples, participants will consider how professionals navigate difficult choices when the law does not provide a clear answer—and how values such as responsibility, fairness, and justice influence the criminal justice system. Join OLLI at FAU Jupiter for a fascinating exploration of the moral questions behind the laws that shape our justice system.
