TRC Workshop: Book Club Gathering
Event box
TRC Workshop: Book Club Gathering In-Person / Online
In this conversation, we will discuss topics that came up during the TRC Book Club’s reading of The Impact of a Sense of Belonging in College: Implications for Student Persistence, Retention, and Success edited by Erin M. Bentrim. Our last book club group who read this book was struck by the quote, "Higher education has retained a bias in the direction of welcoming "college-ready students" rather than transforming into an ecosystem of "student-ready colleges"" (McNair et al., 2016). Join us in discussing this idea of building a “student-ready college.”
The workshop is open to faculty and staff who have read the book, those planning to join the TRC Book Club this semester, or those who have an interest in the topic. If you would like to read the book this semester with your colleagues, please sign up – discussions will start in mid-February.
