One Book, One Campus 2008-2009

The campus theme for 2008-2009 is "Revolutions in Thought." This theme explores intellectual innovations of all kinds.

The One Book, One Campus Committee needs your help in suggesting books related to this theme for consideration for next year's One Book, One Campus title.

Criteria to keep in mind when suggesting potential titles are:

Is the title still in print and available in paperback?
Would the title have a wide-appeal to students in a variety of disciplines?
Can a connection be made to the title and the campus theme?
Is the book under 350 pages long?

Suggested Titles so far:

1. The Structure of Scientific Revolutions by Thomas Kuhn
   
2. Happier by Tal Ben-Shahar
3. Only Revolutons by Mark Danielewski
4. The Origin of the Species by Charles Darwin
5. Society of Mind by Marvin Minsky
6. The Book Thief by Markus Zusak
7. Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut
8. Dispatches From the Edge by Anderson Cooper
9. The Transcendentalists by Barbara Packer
10. Cosmopolitanism: Ethics in a World of Strangers by Kwame Appiah

The One Book, One Campus Committee wants to hear from you. The Deadline for submissions is February 18. Contact Julie Elliott at jmfelli@iusb.edu with your suggestions.
