Aliens, Psychics and Ghosts – a UCLA course taught by professor David Delgado Shorter – has everything from teacher-led meditations to lively debates about paranormal legends. In this interview with the Daily Bruin, Shorter reveals how his class goes beyond an exploration of myths; it pushes students to question the very nature of truth and “immateriality.” This course will be tentatively offered during winter quarter this year.
