Obama just won 6 days ago and I read this witih all of his winning (our winning) in mind. UCBerkeley College of Letters and Science does what they call: on the same page. Incoming students receive a copy of a book (last year was Lincoln at Gettysburg by Garry Wills). Students are to arrive at school having read this book. All of the faculty also read the book and you can imagine what follows. The author arrives on campus at a later date for lecture and discussions. My communty does a similar thing. American Creation could be the "on the same page" for the US. It is so relevant. What would your choice be if there was such a national "on the same page"?</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Sharon Anderson</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 10 Nov 2008 16:57:57 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
