This year students from all class years nominated titles for the summer reading book. The most popular titles were purchased and distributed to about 60 student volunteers over winter break, as well as to faculty and staff.

On the basis of survey evaluations collected by the Office of the Dean of the College, a summer reading committee consisting of representatives from the Office of the Dean of the College, Office of the Dean of Students, and Office of Institutional Equity and Inclusion, as well as faculty and staff members, made the final selection.
