Utica University's Annual Book Club is now a year-long event!

Register for the DEI Book Club

Join Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion and Student Transitions in book facilitations, author events, community collaborations, and creative readings. We will be partnering with departments across campus, local colleges, and community organizations for a fun series that is educational as well as social. All are welcome!

If you're an avid or an occasional reader, an activist or not, an extrovert or an introvert, this book club is for you!

You can grab a copy of each book at the library or purchase through your local bookseller.

Registered participants will receive discussion questions for each book to help guide the reading process.

For more information and to join the DEI Book Club, contact DEI Administrative Assistant Nina Nguyen at nanguyen@utica.edu.

    Another Appalachia Book Cover

    Another Appalachia: Growing Up Queer and Indian in a Mountain Place (2022) by Neema Avashia.
    “Another Appalachia is a breath of fresh air, a work that the public is in dire need of reading. Wide and expansive as the land the author calls home, this essay collection subverts the mainstream’s hyperfocus on white male-dominated narratives from rural America and commands your attention from the first page to the last word.”
