�Թϴ�Ӫ

For the first time this year, the University launched a common reading program known as One Book One �Թϴ�Ӫ. All incoming first-year and transfer students have been asked to read “The Truth About Stories.” The book, by author Thomas King, explores how stories shape who we are and how we understand and interact with people.

Domestic students were mailed a copy of the book, and international students were sent a link to a downloadable version. After reading the book, students were asked to complete a prompt sharing a time when they experienced something unfamiliar, whether small or profound in nature.
