Description
Since the 2011-2012 school year, the Common Reading Experience brings students and faculty together around a single book, both in classroom discussions and public events.
Every first-year student receives a copy of the selected text at orientation sessions, and is challenged to finish it before the school year begins in August. Instructors from the Department of Writing and Rhetoric, First-year Experience, and others then utilize the text in their classes. The program aspires for an enriched sense of academic community through a communal reading of the text.
The selected text for 2024-2025 is Build the Life You Want by Arthur C. Brooks and Oprah Winfrey.
