Suggest a Book for 2012 Common Reading

The folks who select NC State’s common reading have an assignment for you: Nominate a timely, thought-provoking book for next year.

The common reading book, assigned to incoming freshmen over the summer, culminates with a campus appearance by the author during fall orientation and discussions in selected classes. Here’s a link to this year’s common reading assignments by college, based on Rebecca Skloot’s The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks.

Submit your ideas for 2012 to the Common Reading Selection Committee. You can read more about common reading goals and previous selections online.
