The Seasoned Adults Learning at Trinity (S.A.L.T.) recently welcomed guest speaker and Social Security expert Laura Feldman to the “Behind the Headlines” course offering at Trinity Christian College.

Feldman started with Politics 101 and explained the differences between Republicans and Democrats before moving on to Social Security and Medicare.

Feldman is a grassroots organizer for the National Committee to Preserve Social Security & Medicare. She is a native Washingtonian where politics is a local sport. Demystifying politics, personalizing it and making it fun are her goals, she said.

The six-week S.A.L.T. course covers local, national and international news. Class members join in conversations led by instructor Tom Panush, a retired Cook County sheriff.

For more information about the S.A.L.T. program and classes, contact Ruth De Bruyn at (708) 239-4827 or ruth.debruyn@trnty.edu.
