In the eighties is was “The Official Preppy Handbook” because Park Cities was mentioned in detail. Anybody still have their old “Do You Belong in Highland Park?” poster?

@HPHS Parent – The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind is a fantastic and inspiring book. It made my day that people are still reading it!

The Purdue freshman class last year had to read The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. This year it is The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind.

for pete’s sake, the “#1″ (in salt lake city) bestseller
“Turnaround: Crisis, Leadership, and the Olympic Games”
by willard mitt romney didn’t make the list?!?
what about equal time for the other major candidate
in the presidential election?
before the semester starts, the administration is
trying to turn these students’ brains to mush.

The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks was one of the best books I’ve ever read.
