Episode 2: Reads and Leads

To kick off the semester’s first episode of Reads and Lead, Sophia DeLise ’26 and Ray Bird Chair Mr. Freeman dive into discussion about Dear Committee Members by Julie Schumacher. Throughout the episode, they explore the narrator's sardonic wit, unique quirks, and the elements that make the novel so compelling. Their conversation also examines the unfortunate situation of the narrator’s former student, Browles, and the declining state of the department where the narrator works. Produced by Jeff Zavelsky.
