UCSB Reads + Health & Wellness Speed Friending Event
In collaboration with UCSB Reads, Health and Wellness invites you to an interactive afternoon of Speed Friending (similar to speed dating, but for making friendships!).
Participants will be provided with a set of questions based on the UCSB Reads 2025 book selection, The Book of Delights by Ross Gay, and engage in a fun activity designed to foster new connections. Join other students in a safe and welcoming space to discuss themes from the book, such as finding joy in everyday moments, appreciating the small things in life, and the power of human connections.
Light refreshments will be provided. This event is free and open to all students.
The first 20 attendees will receive a limited edition tote bag featuring The Book of Delights by Ross Gay.
To pick up a free copy of the UCSB Reads book in advance, please contact UCSBReads@library.ucsb.edu.
This event may be photographed or recorded.
