Beginning Thursday evening, Dalton State College offers a class that is everything you always wanted to know about ghosts and ghost hunting but were too afraid to ask.
Experienced paranormal investigators Connie Scott and Drew Hester will lead students on a journey of a lifetime, or is that after-lifetime? “Students of ‘Real Ghostbusting 101’ will explore theories about what a ghost is and why an entity sticks around among the living,” says program coordinator Kelly Snyder. “They’ll also study the history of ghost hunting, orbs, ectoplasms, and white noise and the question of what makes a ghost ‘good’ or ‘bad.’”
Hester, a parapsychologist who has hunted with some of the biggest names in the business, will share tools of the ghost hunting trade, Snyder said. Students will learn to use various types of equipment used in paranormal investigations and theories on ghost photography. Scott, a ghost guide, published writer on the paranormal and researcher, and Hester will discuss the scientific approach to ghost hunting. Students will participate in an actual in-the-field ghost hunt and conduct a post-investigation follow-up.
The class meets Thursday evenings and one Saturday from Jan. 22 to Feb. 12. Those interested can register online at www.daltonstate.edu/cce (click on Personal Growth) or call the Center for Continuing Education at (706) 272-4454. Interested ghost hunters are encouraged to register soon; only a few slots remain for this popular class.

Talking Birds
Matt Hamilton/The Daily Citizen Melvyn Ottinger draws a laugh from the crowd during Friday’s “Lunch and Learn” lecture at Dalton State College’s James E. Brown Center. Ottinger, who was the school’s first athletic director when it was still known as Dalton Junior College, talked about his experiences as the coach of Roadrunners men’s basketball from 1968-78, when his teams compiled a 231-78 record and twice advanced to the national championship tournament. The school is relaunching its athletic program, and the public will have a chance to interact with new Dalton State athletic director Derek Waugh and his family during a meet and greet from 4-6 p.m. Tuesday at the James E. Brown Center.
