I am proud of your accomplishments this summer. It was a tremendous effort made in our short five weeks together. The quality of your effort, work and performance are to be commended.
As we discussed in class, here are some suggestions fore summer reading. These books will be incorporated into our fall course work. Tackling even one of these books will help you further yourself both personally and during our academic journey this fall.

The 8th Habit by Stephen Covey
The Speed of Trust by Stephen M.R. Covey (the previous author's son)

It was wonderful to witness your enthusiasm for Rider University and your excitement for returning to in the fall at the EOP banquet. Enjoy the rest of of your break. Stay true to yourself and your dreams. I looking forward to greeting you all back in the fall. In the meantime, feel free to comment on the suggested reading titles, share your own suggestions or just say "hi".
