First Year Read: The War for Kindness
Join us for a moderated book discussion addressing this year's book: The War for Kindness: Building Empathy in a Fractured World!
According to the author Jamil Zaki, we engage with more people today than ever before, yet we genuinely know fewer of them. Kindness has the potential to foster a sense of community and belonging in our society. Join us for a facilitated discussion on envisioning a CSUMB where kindness prominently influences all aspects of campus life.
No prior reading of the book is required to participate in the discussion. The first 100 attendees will receive a free book!
