We will review the biographies of some of these most admired (and not so admired) leaders, taking into consideration the times in which they lived. We'll learn about the job description of the President as outlined in the U.S. Constitution, the story of some of the more significant elections, the role of First Ladies, life in the White House, and more. This course is a history and civics course and not a discussion of current politics beyond the term of Ronald Reagan.

Michael Savini was raised on Rock and Roll. Growing up the youngest in a large family, he had access to most of the great records of the classic rock era (sometimes they were on 8-track tape!). He has been an avid follower of the rock scene from a young age. A guitar player and drummer himself, his favorites include the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Grateful Dead, and Neil Young. He's particularly fond of country rock, and believes that a rock and roll band should usually include a pedal steel guitar and a fiddle. Michael is well-known throughout Long Island and has been involved with supporting a diverse array of individuals in a number of different capacities. He is happy to be back as an instructor for this round of PBS Adult Education classes.
