Initiatives and Events

UConn Reads logo

The UConn Reads program looks forward to connecting diverse members of the University community through a dynamic and meaningful campus-wide book discussion and we encourage you to Co-sponsor your event, program, or resource with us!

If you are planning activities that relate to this year’s theme, consider co-listing your event as a UConn Reads event. Reach out to uconnreads@uconn.edu for more information.


All We Can Save was selected in collaboration with UConn for Women's Herstory Month, being celebrated by the Women's Center in March 2025.

Planning is underway for book club style readings and a culimating event that will bring the campus together in March. Please check back as we learn more, or contact members of the planning committee directly.
