Common Book Discussion Event In-Person
Academic Success is pleased to invite you to the first of a series of Discussion Events focused on this year's Common Books. While we encourage anyone interested to read all three books (available in Bowman Library), first year students have been assigned the following excerpts:
1) The Prologue and Chapter 1 of The Coming Wave: AI, Power, and Our Future by Mustafa Suleyman
2) Chapter 5 of Imagination: A Manifesto by Ruha Benjamin
3) pp. 1-35 of Parable of the Sower: A Graphic Novel Adaptation by Damian Duffy and John Jennings
We are kicking things off on Wednesday, September 3rd at 12:45pm with tea, coffee, and sweet treats. We will gather in the Seating Circle of Bowman Library and Dr. Esra Coskun-Crabtree will read passages aloud from the book she has chosen. Discussion about what we have heard, what we read, and how this text challenges us to shift paradigms will follow.
