The University of Buffalo publishes a list of books called "unrequired reading". The idea is to encourage an undergraduate student to read one book a month for the duration of the (assumed 4-year) course, totaling 48 books. I first came across this list in 1993. It is still being maintained; definitely worth checking out: http://library.buffalo.edu/48goodbooks/books/ http://library.buffalo.edu/48goodbooks/books/
