Come Play Bridge (On Campus)
This study group is for people who already know how to play bridge. Join us if you would like to meet other ICL members who play and want to have more opportunities to play the game. We welcome those who have recently learned the game as well as intermediate and advanced players. We will be playing for FUN, not cutthroat! Hopefully we can all learn from one another.
NOTE: This is an ongoing study group, but new participants are always welcome.
Coordinator: Andrea Zietlow

The Complete Thin Man Collection (On Campus)
The Thin Man was a series of six movies which were produced between 1934 and 1947. The movies starred William Powell and Myrna Loy as Nick and Nora Charles. The plot for these films centered around Nick and Nora's relationship as high society detectives. The films are full of laughs and mystery as Nick and Nora toast each other with champagne cocktails as they solve the latest "who done it"! The seventh class we will show two documentaries, one each on the lives of William Powell and Myrna Loy.

Your Family Tree Is Like Peeling an Onion (On Campus and Zoom Simultaneously)
What happens when we peel an onion? Most cry, and then enjoy it in many different ways. The same is true of your family tree. Every person and branch we add is like peeling another layer of an onion revealing more about our ancestries. The purpose of this study group is to introduce people to some basic tools and concepts to build a family tree. The first two sessions will cover Ancestry and Family Tree Maker. They will center upon the traditional resources with only a brief discussion of DNA. In the third session, attendees can ask questions, talk about their brick walls, and present their own family trees.
