“We in the English Department recognize
the importance of a common book experience
on campus,” says Scott Stankey, ARCC
English faculty. “It's important
that our students have the experience of
reading a book and then meeting the person
who wrote that book to facilitate their
growth, awareness and understanding of
language and literature.”
Due to the popularity of the authors visiting
ARCC, a student-only reading is held an
hour before the public reading to allow
for an education-enhancing experience.
The public is also invited to plan ahead
for a visit by author Ed-Bok Lee. Lee will
be reading from his first book, " “Real
Karaoke People: Poems and Prose,” April
25, 11 a.m., Coon Rapids Campus Room B-235.
