The Moth Presents: All These Wonders: True Stories about Facing the Unknown

The 2022 First-Year Reading Experience book is The Moth Presents: All These Wonders: True Stories about Facing the Unknown.

All These Wonders offers a collection of stories from a diverse array of voices on topics including facing the unknown, living in the present, belonging, gratitude, and meaningful work. First-year students will reflect on their own personal and professional journeys as they engage with this book throughout the year.

All first-year students will receive the book at in-person SOAR sessions in June. During Viking Venture, students will join their first-year seminar classmates, instructor and mentor to discuss the book over breakfast. The book conversation will culminate in a lecture during the Fall semester related to the book’s focus on facing the unknown.
