President Hall's Book Report

President Hall's Book Report

How did you spend your summer vacation?

Well, between his many other presidential commitments and responsibilities, Utah State University President Kermit L. Hall read at least a book a week. His "book report" is now on display in the Utah State Bookstore. President Hall was featured the June 24 edition of the Christian Science Monitor. The article, All The President's Books, featured several university presidents and their summer reading lists.

While most stuck to academic subjects, some presidents lightened up for some summer reading at the beach. A few even read Harry Potter. President Hall's list included Leonard Thompson's A History of South Africa and Fast Food Nation, among others. These books, along with books written by President Hall, are on display in the south Bookstore. The display includes a photograph of the president and a copy of theChristian Science Monitorarticle.

According to the Bookstore, Utah State students are following the president's lead. Many of his selections are selling well.
