A South Carolina State Representative in Major Pearl-Clutching Mode

College of Charleston.  The College Reads!   The College Reads! is the College of Charleston’s campus-wide common reading program designed to connect students, faculty, and staff around a single book to promote the idea that liberally educated people read broadly and discuss with one another ideas arising from the books they share. All incoming students and roster faculty receive a copy of the book.

Uh-oh!  Richland Library.  Next in line for punishment?
