Wichita State Common Read 2024: Eat Like a Fish

Eat Like a Fish: My Adventures as a Fisherman Turned Restorative Ocean Farmer by Bren Smith

WSU Common Read 2025-2026

Eat Like a Fish by Bren Smith

The Wichita State Common Read was initiated by the Office of First Year Programs to provide students a common experience in their first year at Wichita State University. For the 2025-2026 academic year, the Wichita State Common Read committee has selected Eat Like a Fish by Bren Smith. As a common read experience, all new students receive a copy, and the novel will be incorporated into First-Year seminar classes, Honors 101 as well as various programs outside of the classroom.

Please join us in Ablah Library for a book discussion in August! We hope all first-year seminar instructors and Common Read discussion leaders can come, but everyone is welcome to join us at 1:00-1:50PM on Thursday, August 7. See link below to RSVP. Registration is required only for online participation and is optional for in-person attendance. All registered attendees will receive an email reminder.
