Not too late to sign up for the fall Community Read!
All students, faculty and staff are welcome to participate in the fall Community Read. This term, we will be reading Ross Gay’s Catalog of Unabashed Gratitude. Ross Gay, winner of the Kingsley Tufts Award and a finalist for the National Book Award and the National Books Critics Circle Award, will be speaking on campus in October about his book that “studies the wisdom of the garden and orchard, those places where all—death, sorrow, loss—is converted into what might, with patience, nourish us.” Discussion may touch on topics including nature and culture; environmental justice and sustainability; pain, joy, and hope, and more.
You can sign up for one of four sessions that will meet four times during the fall term to discuss the book. Students can enroll in ENST 320, faculty and staff can contact Kelsey McCormick (kelsey.m.mccormick@lawrence.edu) or the faculty member leading each session to sign up. This course has no papers and no grading.

Wednesday 11:10-12:20 – Celia Barnes

Thursday 12:30-2:20 – Mark Jenike
