FYS Cénacle Groups Forming for the Spring

We invite students to join the Cénacle Poétique, small First Year of Studies reading and conversation circles that will meet monthly in the homes of faculty. Spring readings will include: JRR Tolkien, The Hobbit, (18 February); Tracy Kidder, Mountains beyond Mountains (18 March); and Malcolm Gladwell, Outliers (15 April). Books will be available for purchase at the Hammes Notre Dame Book Store. Meetings will take place on Thursday evenings, 5:30-8 pm. Transportation will be arranged, and dinner will be provided.

Please contact Dr. Maureen Dawson in the First Year of Studies (mdawson3@nd.edu) if you are interested or have questions. Space is limited, so please don’t delay. This is a wonderful way to enrich your Notre Dame experience and develop a healthy appreciation of reading and conversation as a creative and life-changing art.
