This story dates back to February of 1974, but was recently covered by the Delta Optimist of Canada. According to the details, a University of British Columbia mathematics professor at the time, Dr. Walter Szetela wrote a letter to the Delta School Board highly critical of an astrology class offered in the night school education programme, saying it had no relevance in the modern school education system.
Mrs. L Chapman, who taught the course, responded by saying there was a definite need for the study of planets. She claimed that, “It is a subject that attempts to expand human consciousness beyond purely the material”.
Chapman was also critical of Szetela’s complaint, saying he didn’t know anything about astrology but was saying “All kinds of things about it.” Chapman also said that it had been “Statistically proven” that there were a greater number of robberies, violent crimes, upheavals and burst of madness during the full moon than in other periods, for example.
The director of the Delta Adult Night School Education Programme at the time, Armin Kutzner said the district was offering the astrology class, among over 100 other classes, due to public request. It is not known if any changes were made in response to Dr. Szetela's letter.
USA Today covers the life and times of American astrologer, writer, teacher and lecturer Bernie Ashman. He is reported to have written eleven books and has contributed much to his field, including training and working on astrology related software.
Ashman published his first book, 'Astrological Games People Play', with ACS Publications in 1987, promptly starting his authorial career. The publisher's chief editor, Maritha Pottenger, oversaw Ashman's first two publications. Ashman's success further picked up after publishing 'Road Map to Your Future' and 'Sign Mates', which, like his other texts, are translated into Chinese, Spanish, French, Russian and Romanian.
