Book Discussion Group: 2002-2003



The AAUW Reading Group is gearing up for another great year of diverse reading.

The reading group is a big part of AAUW's ¡Adelante! diversity initiative and strives to expose members to a wide range of literature. This year's selections are listed below and will be available to thumb through at most of the monthly meetings. You are welcome to join a group for the entire series, or for one topic only.

According to the national AAUW website, nonmembers are welcome to join in the book club, so please pass this information along to any friends that you think might be interested. Also note that if you go through the AAUW website to Amazon.com to purchase your books, AAUW will receive a small donation.

For more information about groups and schedules, e-mail Christine Roberson or phone 499-9411.
