Summer Reading

Prepare for the academic challenge that lies ahead with your summer reading.

Faculty Favorites is a lighthearted survey of some of our faculty's most loved law and some non-law related books and films. Suggested Readings is an extensive list compiled by Capital University Law School Reference Librarian, Jane Underwood. We hope you enjoy these readings. Remember, the most important thing to do this summer is relax and mentally get ready for the challenges ahead.
