BSC offers 5-week fall course on reading

Registration will open Sept. 7 for the Bureau of Study Counsel’s Harvard Course in Reading and Study Strategies.

The reading course is designed for people overwhelmed by the prospect of reading more, and reading critically. The course helps students read strategically, selectively, and actively, and to develop reading strategies and other beneficial skills.

The course will be held from Sept. 27 to Oct. 29 in two sessions. The morning session will meet Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, from 8 to 9 a.m.; the late afternoon session will meet on the same days, from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. Both sessions take place in Lecture Hall E at the Science Center, 1 Oxford St., Cambridge.

The cost is $150 in general, and $25 for full-time Harvard College students and Graduate School of Arts and Sciences students. Registration is required; e-mail pdusossoit@bsc.harvard.edu and request instructions, or visit the bureau in person at 5 Linden St.
