A book reading club for voluntary members (including both undergraduate and graduate students) of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering. Here is how the club will be run: each member will take turn to recommend a book of general interest every two months, and the members will read the book on their own pace for the next two month, while sharing their thoughts and questions in the group chat for the club. These online interactions are intended to help the members understand the contents and contexts of the books better. We will meet once every two months, after completion of each book, for a short coffee break for a non-formal chat and selection of the next book to read. This club is not intended to exert any pressure on any of its members, and thus will be operated entirely based on goodwill of the members.
