Bluffton University’s Institute for Learning in Retirement (ILR) is offering a four-week February course that’s not just for retirees.

Anyone over 55 may register for “The Monuments Men and Women: Their Story,” which will be told from 4-5:30 p.m. Tuesdays, Feb. 3-24, in the Kreider Room of Bluffton’s Marbeck Center. Cost is $40, or $65 if participants would like to stay for supper each week. Class members may also eat individual meals for $6.50 per meal.

Course moderators H.W. and Betty Enderle will recount the story of the professors, museum curators and art restorers who left their careers during World War II to join the Allies as rescuers of art looted by the Nazis. Often found with front-line combat units, they worked in North Africa, Italy and Western Europe to save paintings and sculptures, as well as manuscripts, tapestries and musical scores.
