Zoomers and Boomers is focused on the evolving Society and Culture each of these Generations has experienced and now mostly share side by side. Each generation will be represented by a participant of each gender to provide balanced and unique insights into the topic of generational contrasts. We will touch on the role of tech, love and friendship, humor, life paths, education, work and purpose, community, fun, and curiosity. Blaine Benedict moved to Las Vegas nearly 75 years ago from New Jersey at the age of 3. He attended local schools and graduated from the original Las Vegas High School. He then earned a B.S. degree in Agriculture and Environment Science from Rutgers University. He served two years in the U.S. Army as an artillery officer. Returning to Las Vegas with no particular career plans, he began a career in gaming which led to senior positions at both the Dunes Hotel and Binion's Horseshoe. After retiring from gaming, he finally used his degree as an environmental educator and non-profit executive with the Southern Nevada Conservancy. He now stays busy and active as an OLLI at UNLV student. Fran Smith holds a B.A. in political science and an M.A. in International Relations. Her first career was on Capitol Hill. Her second was in housing development in Honolulu. And her third was non-profit management. After retiring, she returned to her love of learning through OLLI. Since joining OLLI at UNLV, she has chaired the Fundraising Committee, is currently Chair of the Steering Council, and has taught numerous art history classes.
