Join us for the kick-off lecture in our Faculty Lecture Series! Friday, Sept. 25 from 1-2 p.m. in E103 (East Building), instructor Jon Holz will present “My Puns Aren’t the Only Thing Getting Old: A Brief Look at the Physiology of Aging and Selected Age Related Diseases.”

You know about the aches and pains. But have you ever wondered what’s actually happening to your body as the years add up? In this talk, Holz will explore the science behind aging, focusing on how key systems like our heart, blood vessels, skeleton and joints change over time. Along the way, we’ll dig into common age-related conditions like high blood pressure and arthritis in clear, accessible terms. Come for the science, stay for the live Q&A (and maybe a few more puns).

We're collecting new and gently used children's books in honor of Dolly Parton and her decades of philanthropy and investment in children's literacy! Donated books will be distributed to The Nahman-Watson Library at Greenfield Community College and spaces where students can either entertain their children while at GCC (including a shelf in the "Little Bee Library" in the Student Lounge) or bring home to their families.

During the week of Sept. 21-25, books can be dropped in designated bins on campus including the Student Lounge, President's Office, Peer Tutoring, Academic Advising and the Community Engagement Center in the East Building.

Join us Wednesday, Sept. 30 from 2-4 p.m. for an engaging and frank conversation about sexuality and aging featuring award-winning educator, sexuality researcher and podcaster Jane Fleishman, PhD, MEd, MS, CSE. The event is FREE and open to the public. RSVP is requested: gccfor.me/no-stopping

Titled “Ain’t No Stopping Us Now: The Pleasures and Pitfalls of Sexuality as We Age,” the event will explore how sexuality can change throughout the aging process and how people can continue to experience intimacy, pleasure and sexual wellness as they grow older.

“As we age, we often know ourselves and our bodies better,” Fleishman says. “Yet societal taboos around sexuality, particularly the sexuality of older adults, can make these conversations difficult or uncomfortable.”

Fleishman will draw on current research and her experience as a sexuality professional to discuss common challenges, offer practical information and resources and create space for participants to ask questions and engage in confidential discussion. The session will include tips and resources specifically for older adults.
