The All Bonaventure Reads (ABR) Committee is seeking nominations for the 2013 ABR selection. Each year the committee considers dozens of books in an effort to identify an engaging book that will be relevant to our incoming freshmen class. In making our selection, we attempt to choose a book that is riveting, less than 400 pages and current. In addition, it should be a book that high school students are unlikely to have already read.
Finally, it is a bonus if we can find a book by an author who is a terrific speaker and available for a reasonable fee. We welcome recommendations from faculty, staff and students.
Please send your recommendations to Jean Ehman (Chair) at jehman@sbu.edu; Chris Brown at cbrown@sbu.edu or Carol Fischer at cfischer@sbu.edu. Thank you.
