Announcement:

The theme for 2008-2009 has been selected. It is: Human Health and Environmental Sustainability. The committee is in the process of selecting the summer reading, which will be announced shortly.

 

Committee for Cultural and Intellectual Community (CCIC)

Human Health and Environmental Sustainability is the theme for CCIC sponsored programs in 2008-09.  Faculty and first year students will explore this theme by reading and discussing World Made by Hand as part of the summer reading program.  The theme also will be investigated in a variety of academic and cultural programs offered by faculty and student groups throughout the 2008-2009 academic year.

Community Learning Day will be held on Wednesday, Sept 17th.  James Howard Kunstler, author of World Made by Hand will be the principal speaker. 

12:00-1:30 PM LECTURE, Kendall Hall

1:30-2:00 PM BOOK SIGNING, Brower Student Center

2:00-3:30 PM PANEL DISCUSSION, Library Auditorium

The theme has been developed to support programming that is already planned as well as encourage the development of new programs.  We invite individual community members, campus departments and student organizations to develop programs related to this theme.  Campus Community members are also invited to participate in the development of Community Learning Day as well as other programs.

Finally, the CCIC welcomes suggestions for a Suggested Reading List to provide added voice and perspective to our investigation of the theme.   This list will be shared with the campus community along with promotional materials for thematic programs next year.

Please consider joining our efforts to support intellectual and cultural growth on our campus. We welcome your ideas and encourage your involvement in program planning.   To serve on the CCIC or Community Learning Day Committee please contact Robert Anderson, randerso@tcnj.edu.

Thank you.

The Committee on Cultural and Intellectual Community
