Common Reading: Overview

Since a college is a community of scholars we try to encourage all administration, staff, and faculty to share in a common reading each summer. We want the students to share in this experience so we encourage you to join us this summer in reading Edwin Abbott’s Flatland: A romance of many dimensions. This reading will be featured at Freshmen Orientation and it may well be used by your professors in any number of classes for illustrations, examples, or as a starting point for exploring topics within a particular discipline. The reading is in the public domain and a link is provided below for your convenience.
