The next IU South Bend Veterans Book Club will be Thursday March 24, 5:30 in Room 301 of the library and on Zoom. We will have the privilege of hearing from Scott Leeper. He is one of the authors of the book, Drowning in Addiction, Sink or Swim: A Personal Guide for Choosing Your Legit Path to Recovery. In the book Scott describes his father’s struggle with alcohol addiction, and the impact it had on Scott and his extended family. His father’s untimely death from complications of alcoholism had long term impacts on Scott’s marriage, relationships, mental health, and military career. Scott is an honor student at IU South Bend and a leader of the Student Veterans Organization.
The Veterans Book Club is open to everyone on campus and in the community interested in veteran’s experiences. For more information, the Zoom link or a copy of the book, please contact Rhonda Culbertson (rculbert@iusb.edu)
