Summer Plans: Odahl

Charles Odahl always puts his summers to good use. Last summer, he attended the international Constantine exhibition in Trier, Germany (for a book signing of his biography of the emperor); did research in Rome and Tuscany, Italy for a book he is writing on Cicero; and did archaeological and museum research at the ruins of Carthage in Tunisia for a future project. This summer, he is teaching Medieval European History and Medieval Latin Literature in BSU's first five week summer session; completing his book on Cicero and the Catilinarian Conspiracy; and taking some time off for surfing and sailing on the Oregon coast before starting the fall semester and new projects.
