Each fall the PVCC community votes on a single book to read. This year the One Book is The Anthropocene Reviewed: Essays on a Human-Centered Planet by John Green. The book is described as "a remarkable symphony of essays," where best selling author John Green "reviews different facets of the human-centered planet on a five-star scale—from the QWERTY keyboard and sunsets to Canada geese and Penguins of Madagascar."

Follow along this semester as the College reads and explores the themes and topic of this funny and complex prose. Free copies of the book will be available for students, staff and faculty at the kick-off event this Wednesday, September 2, in the Main Building Event Space. There will also be hot dogs, a food contest and the opportunity to trace your hand like the cavemen in the Lascaux Cave Paintings.

Why hot dogs you may ask? Read the book to find out!
