Beginning Your Academic Career

2009 Summer Reading Assignment (.pdf)

First Year College has had a summer reading program for over ten years. Our students have read Marian Wright Edelman’s The Measure of Our Success, Neil Postman’s Amusing Ourselves to Death, and William Cronon’s ’Only Connect’: The Goals of a Liberal Education. In 2005, the University started a summer reading program in which FYC and many of the other NC State Colleges participate. We've even been fortunate to have the summer reading author serve as the Convocation Celebration Speaker.

Past Summer Reading Books

Questions about any aspect of the FYC Curriculum can be directed to Donna Burton, Assistant Director for Curriculum and Teaching.
