SUMMARY:CLE |Trump 2.0: A Conversation with Andrew Weissmann and Benjamin Wittes at Center for Life Enrichment
DESCRIPTION:Andrew Weissmann\, a CLE favorite\, and Benjamin Wittes\, editor in chief of Lawfare\, will discuss the Trump 2.0 administration’s impact on the United States Department of Justice\, the FBI\, the Intelligence Community and national security. Has the threat to liberal democracy and authoritarian capture that many predicted prior to the election materialized? If not\, what “guardrails” have held\, and can they continue to do so? If so\, what strategies remain available to push back given the extraordinary legal powers delegated to the President in the Constitution and by Congress? How successful has Trump been in “reining in” the media and silencing those opposed to him\, either by initiating criminal investigations or chilling their speech through civil proceedings? Weissmann and Wittes will assess the response of the courts to Trump’s assertions of executive power and his administration’s attempt at “structural deregulation” of administrative agencies. \nExpect a deep dive into the activities of the President\, the administrative state and the courts by two of the country’s foremost thinkers about democracy\, national security and the rule of law.

SUMMARY:Henry Ossawa Tanner\, America’s First Internationally Recognized African-American Artist at Center for Life Enrichment
DESCRIPTION:In this lecture Dr. Harvey sketches the career of Henry O. Tanner\, from his roots in the AME Church to his studies with Thomas Eakins in Philadelphia and his blossoming career in Paris. Although he is best known for his religious subjects\, painted after his arrival in Paris in 1892\, Tanner has an important connection to Highlands\, where he spent the summer of 1888 during a teaching stint in Atlanta at Clark University. His experiences here influenced two of his widely admired paintings of the African-American community\, The Banjo Lesson (1893) and The Thankful Poor (1894)\, both exhibited to wide acclaim in Europe. \nThis program is in collaboration with the Highlands Historical Society. \nJoin us after Dr. Harvey’s presentation from 4:30 – 6:30 for a wine reception at High Country Wine & Provisions!

SUMMARY:Unearthing the Past: Geologic Foundations and the Quest for Lithium in the Carolinas at Center for Life Enrichment
DESCRIPTION:The geologic history of the Carolinas spans over one billion years. The forces that built the foundation of the Carolinas have shuffled us between super continents and provided us a wealth of mineral resources. Human history is a tiny fraction of geologic history; however\, we have learned to exploit geology beginning with favored rocks for stone tools through lithium resources for batteries. Research into lithium in the Carolinas is significantly impacted by local\, State\, and national politics\, as well as the global market. Even over the past few years\, there have been significant swings in the enthusiasm surrounding exploration for\, and extraction of\, lithium in the Carolinas. Presently\, the US Geological Survey is taking new stock of historically mined products across the USA searching for resources once cast aside as waste but now valuable. \nThe talk will summarize the geologic history of the Carolinas and link the formation of economic deposits to their origin story. We will see the role of dating rocks in mineral exploration.

SUMMARY:Zahner Conservation Lecture Series | Understanding Helene as a Geologic Event in Southern Appalachia at Highlands Nature Center
DESCRIPTION:Zahner Conservation Lecture Series Understanding Helene as a Geologic Event in Southern Appalachia…and What is a “Geologic Event” Anyway? \nPhilip S. Prince\, Ph.D.\, Project Geologist\, Appalachian Landslide Consultants\, PLLC\, Virginia Tech Department of Geosciences \n\n\nHelene’s impacts on rivers and slopes in the southern Appalachians exceeded all recorded storms\, establishing a new benchmark for flooding and landsliding from Haywood County to southwest Virginia. The storm’s severity resulted from a specific combination of weather movement and the unique southern Appalachian topography\, whose southeast-facing slopes are perfectly oriented to focus impacts of weather systems from the Gulf. This talk will place the Helene event in a geologic and topographic context\, focusing on what the storm actually did to the landscape and river channels from the perspective of fieldwork and remote sensing. LiDAR imagery and the results of past storms will shed some light on just how long the scars of Helene may last and offer some insight into just how important similar storms may have been in shaping the mountains into what we see today. \nSponsored by Ruthie & Berry Edwards.
