Savvy Seniors: Betty Smith and VPR

Betty Smith will share her history with VPR! Betty was at the table when a public radio station in Vermont was just an idea and was instrumental in launching VPR on the air in 1977. She was among the first women announcers on the air in Vermont and fortunately, we can still hear her announcing today! Please plan to join us to meet Betty and to hear this inspiring story!

The Meaning of "Life" and the Meaning of Life

Some English words only have a single meaning, while others have many. In its online dictionary, Merriam-Webster records twenty separate senses for the common word “life,” with some of these having as many as four subsenses. What does this mean, and what do they mean? Windsor resident and Merriam-Webster editor Michael Metivier will use the entry for “life” to talk about what dictionaries do (and do not do) and shed some light on lexicography.

Snacks and drinks will be provided.
