[CASL-L] Faculty All School Reads

[Valerie DiLorenzo]

Hi Jodie,

I literally just finished reading *The Compassionate Achiever: How Helping
Others Fuels Success *by Christopher L. Kukk, Ph.D. Dr. Kukk is the
director of the Kathwari Honors Program at WCSU. He teaches Political
Science at WCSU and is a founding director of the Center for Compassion,
Creativity, and Innovation. He's an incredibly bright, charismatic person.
His book is excellent. Honestly, I never really thought about the
difference between empathy and compassion before reading his book. I will
use it to help me as both an advisor and teacher/librarian this year. What
a world it would be if more of us were "compassionate achievers." I will
strive to be a compassionate achiever from this point forward.

Best,
~Valerie
