The Media and Communication Department of Castleton University is hosting a reception on Dec. 8 from 5-7 p.m. in the Fine Arts Center lobby featuring student authors who produced gripping "COVID Chronicles" blogs that were subsequently compiled into a book.

Come meet the Media Writing class students who poured their souls onto pages during the Fall 2020 online-only semester about the struggles and triumphs of their daily pandemic-ruled lives.

Light appetizers and cake will be served, and books will be available for $15, with proceeds going to create a scholarship.

These students powerfully documented what college students around the globe were feeling and their work will be forever memorialized in "COVID Chronicles: College Students Survive Pandemic Life." Hope you can make it!
