Great Cities: Boston - 10
UCLL 0202 - 10
Course Description
The Tufts OLLI program is proud to join with other local organizations in the celebration of the 250th anniversary of the beginnings of American revolutionary activity that took place in the Boston area in 1775 – 1776. In this course, we will look at Boston’s past, present, and future, and what has made it the great city that it is today. We will start with a look at the history of Boston, from its beginnings with the first settlers and its pivotal role in the American Revolution to the development of civic, economic, social, and cultural institutions (some of which are in neighboring Cambridge). We will then take a look at some of these great institutions, as well as some of Boston’s neighborhoods, that make Boston a great place to live, work, and visit.
