This Spring, the Shared Read is part of an innovative and exciting collaboration among ND Women Connect, ThinkND, and Women’s Work — a new undergraduate course in the College of Arts & Letters.
Dr. Chris Hedlin has designed Women’s Work in a way that allows alumni and friends to participate through the related ThinkND microsite and gives students the opportunity to interface directly with alumni and NDWC Shared Read participants as part of the course structure. She will guide us through Women’s Work and the course content via a short series of videos and podcasts hosted on the ThinkND website. (Even if you are already registered on ThinkND, be sure to register specifically for this program as well so that you’ll get reminders when content is available.)
In conjunction with Women’s Work and related ThinkND programming, we have selected Lessons in Chemistry, by Bonnie Garmus, as this year’s NDWC Shared Read, so we can read alongside the students and other alumni.
The usual NDWC Shared Read online discussion will take place via the NDWC Shared Read Facebook group from March 20 – April 30, 2025. A local Austin NDWC meet-up also will be scheduled in early May with participating readers.
