To support Loyola’s Rambler Read program for this academic year, the University Libraries developed a toolkit to facilitate teaching and research related to Thick: And Other Essays by Tressie McMillan Cottom. Check it out here: libguides.luc.edu/thick
The guide includes:
- An overview of the collection of essays and the author
- Teaching resources including the publisher-provided discussion guide, Loyola contributed discussion questions, a research topic development activity, and a section on how university students approach the issues
- Multimedia resources such as interviews, videos, articles, book reviews, podcasts, and additional readings
- Resources to dive deeper into the issues such as information on racism and discrimination at Loyola, supplemental research, and scholarship addressing the topics
- Organizations at Loyola and in the Chicagoland area to discover
- Ways to contribute and get help
If you would like to contribute feedback about the toolkit and to provide additional resources, please use this form.
