| Abstract |
|
The purpose of this study is to introduce the summer reading programs for incoming freshmen class at Cornell, Duke, and University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I will examine the book selection processes, contents of the selected books, and personnels who are involved in the programs. The summer reading programs provide a set of comprehensive resources about the issues that were addressed in each of the selected books including the guidelines for discussion leaders, discussion questions, Websites and data sources, and list of previous studies and reference materials on the topics. I discuss the implications of the programs in developing the winter bridge programs for incoming freshmen students in Korean universities. |
