A First-Year Student Academic Workshop
Featuring Mohsin Hamid
Saturday, September 11, 2010
2:00pm - 5:00pm
Location: Gaston Hall on Third Floor of Healy Hall
Mohsin Hamid was born in Pakistan, attended college and law school in America, worked internationally as a business consultant, and now writes full-time, living between Lahore and other places including New York and London. He has published two novels: Moth Smoke (2000) and The Reluctant Fundamentalist (2007).
About the Workshop
The Workshop, funded by Frederick Marino (SLL '68) and his Family, functions as the introduction to the challenges and rewards of the University's intellectual life of the mind. It helps to affirm Georgetown's commitment to the highest academic standards. When Georgetown invites an "international writer" as its featured author, the University means to add a significant non-American cultural dimension to the academic formation of Georgetown students.
