Common Reading Blog 2019

Welcome, Class of 2023!

History and Mission

In 2009, the Robert D. Clark Honors College implemented its Common Reading Program to introduce new students to debate in the public space, something the CHC values greatly. The Common Reading offers students a chance to publically articulate and defend their opinions, in addition to providing a means for intellectual growth through engaging with others. We love to encourage new students to join in our proud tradition of debate in the public space, as it marks the beginning of your experience in the Robert D. Clark Honors College.

This year, the Clark Honors College is pleased to present Under the Feet of Jesus by Helena Maria Viramontes.
