The Student Services Book Club has been on hold since August 2008 due to so many people taking classes and not a lot of time to read for fun.
However, if you do get a chance to read between class sessions, etc, please post recommendations on our blog site under the "Links" heading.
Thanks!

Monthly Meetings
We try to have the monthly meetings on the last Thursday of each month. However, due to the first week of classes and holidays, I have moved some of these one week to the first Thursday of the following month so we'd have time to read. Currently, the monthly meetings are scheduled as follows:
July 31
September 4
September 25
October 30
December 4
January 8

Welcome!
Welcome to the Student Services Book Club! We're glad you're here. Feel free to stay and visit or browse to find some ideas for your next book to read.
Our mission is to have fun reading new books and genres that we might not have otherwise been exposed. We try to read a new book every month taking turns for members picks. Our philosophy has always been "come when you can, leave when you must". For those busy months that you just can't squeeze another thing into, don't worry about reading with us but pick it up next month if you can.
We meet monthly for a brown-bag lunch to discuss the book and whether or not we liked it. It's also an opportunity to let the next member share their pick for next month's book.
Feel free to add your input, and let us know if you have recently read any good books!
