Course Title: The Social History of Scotland. St Kilda and the 1770s (Winter Term 2022)
Participant Testimonials:

Wonderful cultural introduction to the Scottish outer islands and the highlands

It did. I would have enjoyed more on Johnson and his other writings, which I explored on my own, but I don't suppose there was enough time to do that well.

Course Title: Four Women Poets of Northeast Scotland (Winter Term 2019)
Participant Testimonials:

Anne Shivas presented the poetry in such an interesting way and involved the entire class. So many various topics of the poets and country were covered.

The class was wonderful. Anne is a terrific, knowledgeable leader, with a gentle style that invites all to participate.
