Recommended Reading
Lists of books recommended by our faculty and staff;
beginning small but set to grow soon. All book lists are
available in PDF format, which requires Adobe
Acrobat Reader. Clicking on the title of a book will
take you to its order page on Amazon.
Louis L. Marines, President
- Twenty Books
That Changed My Life: "These books have
changed my life not because they have changed me, but
because they have helped me better understand who I
am and what matters, so I am better able to answer Wayne
Muller's question, 'How, Then, Shall I Live?'"
Betty Avary, Faculty
