Participate in the first meeting of the South Side Book Club. This series will allow participants to read through UChicago’s Chicago Studies' Chicago By the Book Tour, a guide to the Windy City through a literary lens. This is a "no guilt" book club that meets once per quarter for a lunchtime conversation—no judgement if you don't get past the first chapter before then. We'll focus on books about the South Side of Chicago and begin with Lee Bey's Southern Exposure, a photographic guide to the architectural treasures of the South Side. Participants are encouraged to purchase their copy from a South Side bookseller such as the Seminary Co-op or Semicolon Books. The book club is open to faculty, faculty partners, emeriti, and staff. Discussion questions will be sent to registrants in advance of the meeting. This event is sponsored by the Office of Dual Careers and Faculty Relocation and the College's Chicago Studies program.
