Registration is now open for faculty interested in facilitating a GCReads micro seminar this fall. GCReads is our common reading experience for incoming first-year students. Students will select one of 10 essays to discuss during a 60-minute micro seminar Friday, August 12, during their Weekend of Welcome. Faculty consistently rate the experience as “excellent” or “good,” and students describe GCReads as a “good introduction to college.”  We are inviting all faculty to consider joining us this year in delivering this first-year reading initiative. Sign up here, or please reach out to Dr. Erin Weston erin.weston@gcsu.edu if you have any questions.
