Banned Book Week was in full swing and San Diego State University did their part to make sure censorship doesn’t stand on their campus. On Wednesday, October 4 at Conrad Prebys Aztec Student Union the SDSU library and Associated Students came together to host the Student Read Out event where students and faculty read excerpts from some of their favorite banned books.
The event was put together in an effort to shed light on the importance of access to history, knowledge and education. SDSU Library Dean Scott Walter kicked off the event with a few words for the audience on the importance of having access to all books before opening the stage to a dozen students who read aloud from their favorite banned books.
