Mary Shelley's Franken- stein was selected as the book for this year. Partic- ipants are invited to read the book, which is in the public domain and avail- able free online, and at- tend monthly discussions on campus led by univer- sity professors. "Frankenstein is a novel that grapples with themes of science, ethics, moral- ity, and faith," said Dr. Ni- cole Kenley, assistant pro- fessor of English. "We look forward to a rich discus- sion of these topics, which remain as relevant in the 21st Century as they were in the 19th." Professors from the de- partments of English, psy- chology, outdoor leadership and theology and ministry will lead lectures and dis- cussions about the book 5-6 p.m. Thursdays, Sept. 22, Oct. 20, Nov. 17 and Dec. 1.
