How does it work? There are 5 books/themes to choose from. Each group will meet 3-4 times during the semester to discuss the book. Some groups may plan to meet 6-7 times during the academic year for longer books. The discussion will be facilitated by a volunteer leader. Groups may teleconference between the two campuses, or there may be separate facilitators, depending upon the size of the group. The Center for Teaching, Learning & Leadership will purchase the books, form the groups, and assist in scheduling the rooms. Faculty and staff interested in participating should email Roxanne Burnett at rburnett@gsc.edu by August 21st.
