Twice a year during fall and spring quarters, Acalanes Adult Education and Diablo International Resource Center, (DIRC) cooperate in presenting a series of six lectures on current topics.  There is a presentation by an expert which is followed by a question and answer session.  Sal Compagno is the moderator for these programs.  The opinions expressed and the accuracy of the materials presented during these lectures are the responsibility of the speaker.  They do not necessarily represent the views of the Diablo International Resource Center or Acalanes Adult Education.

Spring topics for 2019 TBA.

1. Opiad- a Serious Crisis

2.  Central American Refugee Issue

3.  Growth of the Right

4. Climate Change in California

5.  Higher  Education  Costs

They may change in the order,  but this is what
will be offered.
