Details

As a part of Arts Week here on campus, the Guelph Classics Society is running their "Guelphmopylae" event for a second year in a row. Last year, Professor John Walsh wanted to get 300 students together for an epic photograph in the pass between Johnston Hall and MacKinnon to emulate the famed Battle of Thermopylae (as represented in the movie 300) and had a decent turnout but not quite at the magic number. This year they hope to make it all the way and get 300 people in that pass. So, please show up on October 24 at 4:30p.m. Costumes are encouraged, and popcorn will be provided free of charge for those who participate!
