It's Official!

CSUN's Freshman Common Reading Selection Committee has chosen Every Day by David Levithan as the book for the 2015-2016 academic year. During spring 2015, CSUN faculty and staff were invited to join committee members in 75-minute discussions of the book and its themes. Now it's your turn to start reading.

The Freshman Common Reading Program at CSUN was established in 2007 with the selection of The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien.  It became a tradition closely associated with Freshman Convocation in the following year.
