暑期阅读
A central feature of Skidmore’s First-Year Experience is the 暑期阅读 program.
它的目的
是双重的.
- First, we want to highlight that intellectual engagement and education is not confined to the classroom or to academic calendars. On the contrary, learning is ongoing and transcends campus boundaries.
- Second, we want to provide the first-year class, as well as the broader campus community, with a common intellectual experience centered on an engaging topic. The summer reading helps us accomplish both of these goals.
真诚地,
Professor Rachel Roe-Dale
Director of the First-Year Experience and Professor of Mathematics and Statistics
2028届 Selection
We're excited to announce that the summer reading for the 2028届 is Between Two Kingdoms by Suleika Jaouad. This searing, deeply moving memoir of illness and recovery traces one young woman’s
journey from diagnosis to remission and, ultimately, a road trip of healing and self-discovery.
Summer reading materials will be sent to incoming students in early June.
