Kindick is a PhD candidate in the department of Classics at the University of Colorado Boulder.</p><p>This event is sponsored by Mary E.V. McClanahan and the CU Classics Department.&nbsp; The event is free and open to the public.</p></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <h2> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--ucb-related-articles-block paragraph--view-mode--default"> <div>Off</div> </div> </h2> <div>Traditional</div> <div>0</div> <div>On</div> <div>White</div> Mon, 04 Dec 2017 07:00:00 +0000 Anonymous 794 at /classics
