MCC Daily Tribune

Come Together and Read!

Monroe Community College is once again partnering with Writers and Books in its Rochester Reads program. The goal of this program is to provide opportunity and encouragement for community building through reading and discussion. The book chosen for 2019 is Omar El Akkad's novel, American War, which imagines a second US Civil War in the wake of climate change, resulting in political disorder, plague, and a devastated population.

More information about this much anticipated book can be found at: https://www.omarelakkad.com/americanwar.html

Mr. El Akkad will be at MCC on Friday, March 29, 2018, from 12:00-1:00 pm!

This is a call to faculty and staff to get a sense of who would be interested in reading this book as part of an MCC book club. So that we might have the bookstore order enough books for those of us who are interested, if you would like to participate, please let us know at your earliest convenience, by emailing April Daniels at adaniels010@monroecc.edu. We would like to place the order within the next week.

We look forward to exploring together!

Brought to you by the Rochester Reads Committee
