Members of Grier's Faculty attended a Penn State Altoona featuring author of Exit West, Mohsin Hamid. His book was selected as the campus' "Common Read" and weaves a story with magical realism of a time and place very similar to our world today, a city of immigrants and the effects of relentless war on everyday life. Learning Skills teacher Mrs. Shelly Davis and English teachers Ms. Katt Barr and Mrs. Michele Thibodeau attended the special event. Hamid gave a lecture, then opened the floor to Q&A, then held a book signing. Our Grier teachers had a little photo op with this amazing author!
