Students in Dr. Nathan Webb’s Teamwork in Organizations class collected 4300 books as part of a semester-long, service-learning project. The students held the book drive for a local non-profit, Book’em, whose mission is to create “a more literate Nashville by helping economically disadvantaged children, from birth through high school, discover the joy and value of reading through book ownership and enthusiastic volunteers.”
The course has partnered with Book’em for four semesters and has collected almost 15,000 books for the organization.
