Books and Quarantine

What books have you read in the past year? I know that a lot of people had time to catch up on reading, myself included. After watching HBO's Watchmen series, I decided to reread the graphic novel, this time keeping its sequel TV series in mind. And I have to say, it holds up for the most part. Their are more than a few moments that shows the book is a product of its time, but its look at society and the anxieties of the cold war feel more relevant today than ever before. Definitely give it a read if you haven't done so already. You can find a copy, digital or physical, anywhere books are sold.

So what do you think of Watchmen? What other book have you read to past the time? Comment below and let me know about any books you'd recommend.

Thank You NCC, Love, Kati

Good morning NCC! This week, as you know, is our last week of the semester. For me, this means my last week of college (at least for the foreseeable future) and my last day as a Marketing and Communications intern at NCC. First I want to say that starting this student blog has been such a fun experience for me. I have blogged before, both for school and for fun, but it’s been a privilege working to create a space for students to come, read, and share content that they and their peers have created. I know that the blog hasn’t grown very much since we’ve started it, and I didn’t expect it to. But I hope that it at least served a purpose for some of you, and I know that it will live on past my time here at NCC. What’s Next for the Blog? The NCC Students blog will be taken over in the fall by a new student editor. Although we do not have an individual to take it over yet, I trust that someone talented and hardworking will step in and make it even better than I could. Over the summer, facu
