UNLV faculty: Diverse student body needs diverse literature
Sophie Ladd used a book about love and loss to help her undergraduate UNLV students open up about their feelings after the Route 91 Harvest festival shooting. She read “The Heart and The Bottle,” by Oliver Jeffers. Amanda Melilli, head of the Teacher Development Resources Library at UNLV, added that books by Native American writers and about individuals with disabilities should be more widely available.
