After graduation week winds down, a few quiet weeks pass before the academic cycle gears up again. For many Fuqua staff members, this brief respite is an opportunity to slow down, breathe deeply and learn something new.
Reading is good for the soul and for the mind. Next time you have a few free hours, think about borrowing a Ford Library Kindle to discover new ideas or to enhance personal skills.
