A brief description of the themed semester, year, or first-year experience:
OneBook Program
Each year this program selects a book and a theme for incoming first-year students to explore in the English 1301 classes. Having this one book in common means that they will be able to share ideas with other students and learn together, regardless of the intended major, residential situation or personal interests. Throughout the year, the OneBook program sponsors events and activities designed to help you understand and discuss the book and its related theme.
In 2009-2010, Sustainability was selected as the theme for this conversation. The book "Deep Economy" was chosen for this program.
