More Tolkien Scholarship Data Points

Here's a guest post I contributed to Luke Shelton's very cool Tolkien Experience Project. To see more about the project, or to participate, see Luke's page.

It makes me think we should do something similar on the Night School front. Perhaps a series of questions along these lines:

1. What was a book that made a big impact on you when you were growing up?
2. What's a book you've always wanted to read?
3. Were there any books you were assigned to read in school and never did?
4. What's the most important book you haven't read yet?
5. How have your reading habits changed over time?

Particularly two main audiences I'd like to hear from about these: people who did not go on to or who did not graduate from college, and those who went into teaching.
