Nipissing’s Common Book program is going university wide for 2012-2013! A selection committee has been formed with representatives from each of Nipissing’s three faculties and they are looking for input regarding book submissions for next year’s Common Book program.

The Common Book program launched in 2010 with Joseph Boyden's, Three Day Road.  This year, it introduced Rebecca Skloot's, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks.  The project has two main goals: to introduce students in an academic way to literacy and critical thinking, and to provide students with some common intellectual ground to facilitate discussion and friendship.

Got a great book to suggest for the Common Book program?  Just fill in this Word File and email your submission to commonbook@nipissingu.ca on or before Wednesday February 8, 2012 by 4:00 p.m.
