College Reading

One of the most common questions I get about NYU is what professors are getting us to read for each of the courses. Since I'm a compulsive list-maker (thanks, Mum!), I decided to start keeping a list of required reading. I thought about making the list on 42409, like my Reading Log, but Andrew reminded me how great GoodReads.com is, and so I've created a for-college reading shelf on my profile. I might organize them by module in the future, but for now I think it's okay as-is. (If the book is called The Foundations of Chinese Society , you can probably guess which module it was for.)

One thing I haven't figured out is how to include the short PDF excerpts I read for class each week. In any given week, I read about 100 pages of assorted books and journals, either as background for class or required reading for lectures. I haven't decided on a good way to list those, so I'm avoiding them for now.
