The biggest addiction in college: skipping class. Part of my job as an Admissions Advisor at Eastern Washington University is to give presentations to visiting middle and high school classes that come to see what a college campus is like.
The Athenian Agora. The Agora of Athens was the center of the ancient city: a large, open square where the citizens could assemble for a wide variety of purposes. On any given day the space might be used as a market, or for an election, a dramatic performance, a religious procession, military drill, or athletic competition.
'Agora' refers to an open-spaced gathering place, especially a marketplace in Ancient Greece. It is similar in meaning to the Roman 'forum'. Much of the movie takes place in the agora.he wanderers are the planets Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn, the five planets visible to the eye. To the eye, the stars are considered 'fixed' because their path through the sky changes so slowly that it is not noticeable in a lifetime.
