UFO Studies to be Taught at Duke University - Mysterious Universe

Want to take a course that's truly "out of this world"? Then sign up for "2758-UFOs-Encounter, Mystery, Myth," taught by Dr. David Halperin! A closer look indicates this is not a standard Duke University offering: it's a not-for-credit course, and for the predominantly older population served through the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute. The upcoming course will expand upon and update a 1996 seminar Halperin gave while professor at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill. Halperin himself talks about all this in Teaching Ufology--UNC 1996, OLLI 2019. He expresses reflective uncertainty at how this new crop of students will take his course. We look forward to reports! One of the most basic requirements of any course, whatever venue, is that its topic is clear. And that's "Another reason to dislike Ufology," in Kevin Randle's considered opinion. UFO vs UAP vs AAV vents Kevin's spleen on a topic he observes isn't limited to flying saucers. Kevin basically pleads to end "this history of the ever changing name." A tremendously valuable act aimed partly at "some of the bickering within ufology" is Isaac Koi's Expert Input Statement: A Christmas Present for the UFO Community (1 of 3). Read the statement, the reasoning and history behind it, and take serious note and make use of the prior gift that has helped create a huge archive of historical UFO periodicals! (WM)
