Tri-C’s Common Reading program builds community and fosters intellectual engagement by drawing faculty and students together in discussion of a common text. The program also creates venues for interdisciplinary learning as students explore the common text through different lenses both in and out of the classroom. All Tri-C campuses lead co-curricular activities throughout the academic year. During the 2024-2025 academic year, How Long 'Til Black Future Month? by N.K. Jemisin is the current text. In 2025-2026, the Committee is excited to announce the new common read will be The Moth Presents: A Point of Beauty: True Stories of Holding On and Letting Go.
