COE hosts its first African American Adolescent Male Summer Literacy Institute

The UIC Reading Clinic, under the direction of  Dr. Alfred W. Tatum, just wrapped up its first African American Adolescent Male Summer Literacy Institute (AAAMSLI) for 15 young men ranging in age 11-17. The Institute focused on reading and writing for social justice and  nurturing the next generation of socially conscious readers. The young men read interesting and provocative texts and used the written word to address critical issues affecting their generation.
