2016 Parents Weekend

LSA Honors Guest Speakers Luke Schaefer & Kathryn Edin
Friday, November 4, 2016
4:00-7:00 PM
Auditorium B Angell Hall Map
A NYT Bestseller and White House pick, $2.00 a Day, was the summer book for the Class of 2020, written by Kathryn J. Edin (Professor of Sociology & Public Health, Johns Hopkins University) and H. Luke Schaefer (Associate Professor of Social Work and the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy, University of Michigan). Through their research, the authors discovered, surprisingly, that one and a half million households in America live on $2.00 a day, per person. Edin and Schaefer spoke with family members about their stories: where they live, how they came to be in their situation, what they do to survive.

Honors is pleased to welcome the authors as guest lecturers at the 2016 Family Weekend, Friday, November 4, in Angell Aud B for an open talk and book signing. The event begins at 4:00p, followed by a meet and greet in the Perlman Honors Commons with light refreshments.
