MPR's Cathy Wurzer went to the University of Minnesota to meet with President Robert Bruininks, who had two books he wanted to talk about.

One was Doris Kearns Goodwin's biography of Abraham Lincoln called "Team of Rivals." The other was Victor Frankl's "Man's Search for Meaning," a book in which Frankl chronicles his life as a concentration camp inmate during World War II.
