UPCOMING EVENTS

NSCC Book Club Reads:

Who is Government, by Michael Lewis

NSCC's book club will be reading "Who is government?: The Untold Story of Public Service" by Michael Lewis. We will be meeting on September 16th at a NSCC member's home in Highland Park, for a spirited discussion facilitated by James Marquardt, Professor of Politics and International Relations at Lake Forest College.

Registration is limited and available to club members and their guests only.  Drinks, appetizers and dessert will be served.

In his typical readable fashion, Michael Lewis shines a spotlight on a series of exemplary federal employees whose essential behind the scenes work blows up the stereotype of the irrelevant lazy bureaucrat. The fascinating profiles of these public servants detail how the hidden business of government makes our lives possible and how much it matters. 

NSCC members who purchase the book, Who is government?: The Untold Story of Public Service, from the Lake Forest Book Store will receive a 15% discount. Just mention the North Shore Civic Club when you check out. 

The meeting address will be distributed to all who register.
