Reading Without Walls Challenge● Read a book about someone who doesn’t look like you or
live like you
● Read a book about a topic you don’t know much about
● Read a book in a genre or format you don’t typically read for fun
Our goal for this program is to create a community of readers at UMD and in Duluth and encourage participants to encounter, discuss, and share diverse ideas, characters, genres, and perspectives through reading.
