Joan Golder Distinguished Senior Lecture Series
Features Bears Legend Mike Ditka
NORTHFIELD -- Given as a gift to the community by the Golder family, the Joan Golder Distinguished Senior Lecture Series showcases the achievements and life history of noteworthy individuals over the age of 60. The Golder Lecture affords the featured speaker the opportunity to share his or her "Observations on Life." This year’s lecture will turn the spotlight on NFL legend, Mike Ditka. A former football player, coach and television commentator, Ditka coached the Chicago Bears for 11 years and the New Orleans Saints for three years. Ditka is the only individual in modern NFL history to win a championship with the same team as a player and a head coach. He was also the only person to participate in both of the last two Chicago Bears' championships -- as a player in 1963 and as head coach in 1985. Ditka was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1988.
