As of late, incoming freshmen have been advised to take part in a summer reading club put on by the school. Last year they read Sweet Promised Land by Robert Laxalt, a local author that was involved with the university.

This year the summer reading was Nickel & Dimed: On (Not) Getting By In America by Barbara Ehrenreich. I think it is important to point out the obvious slant this book has. The writer is currently a co-chair of the Democratic Socialists of America, is an ardent supporter of Barack Obama, and has been known for her liberal activism.

Indoctrination can't happen if you don't buy into it. So, dear incoming freshmen, be aware of what you're reading, and check out other sides of the story as well.
