In support of the Inaugural University Lecture, the University bookstore sold copies of Maya Angelou's books. The following books were for sale:
Dr. Angelou's most famous piece is I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings; her most recent piece is a cookbook entitled Hallelujah! The Welcome Table. Her poem for President Clinton's inauguration, On the Pulse of the Morning, is in her Complete Collected Poems. The Learning Academy Reads Maya Angelou Students in FGCU's learning community were assigned to read any book written by Maya Angelou over the Christmas Break. The week prior to Dr. Angelou's reading, students will form groups around the books they have read and develop formal presentations. They will discuss the theme and main points of the books, as well as key passages which will be read and explored in class. Close analysis and reading, and preparation
of group presentations, provided students a holistic understanding
of Dr. Angelou's works. |
