Gonzaga Greek Week Touts Homer
Gonzaga University student Bridget Carrick reads aloud from Homer's Odyssey Monday morning, as the buzz of the conversation continues around her at the Crosby Student Center at GU as part of the "Homer-athon", an uninterrupted reading of the story for Greek Week, which includes a scavenger hunt styled after the twelve labors of Hercules and a showing of Disney's animated "Hercules", as well as lectures about Greek history, culminating in the GU Theater Arts production of "Lysistrata" which opens Thursday and runs through the weekend at the Magnuson Theater. Members of the Latin Club, which put on the reading, estimated that it would take six or seven hours to read the entire story of Odysseus.
