The Novel Experience

is a special program for incoming students at Wofford College.  Each year, a novel is selected for students to read over the summer before their freshman year.  This year the novel is Larry Heinemann's  National Book Award-winning Paco's Story.

As part of Hum 101-D we will spend the first week of the seminar discussing the novel.  You will also be asked to prepare a brief essay on a theme to be assigned.  September 21 the author will visit the College for an 11:00am Convocation in which he will respond to selected student essays, and an 8:00pm session when he will discuss his work less formally and read from more recent works.
