This event is connected to our Common Experience program. Common Experience is designed to cultivate common intellectual conversations and facilitate increased interactions among faculty, staff, and students through a connecting theme and book, our Common Read. This year, our Common Read is “Tell Me Who You Are” by Winona Guo and Priya Vulchi, and our theme is “Cultivating me to understand the complexities of We.”
