Students Hold Readathon in the Loop

students have kicked off a 24 hour read-in at in the Loop.

However, there is one small catch to the readathon. The students get to go home for the night. Friday's portion got under way at 3pm and will go on until 10pm. The students will return to the bookstore Saturday at 11am and read until 3pm.

The event is a fund-raiser for next year’s Freshman Class Read project. Subterranean will donate 10% of that 24 hour period's sales to the Freshman Class Read project.

When University City Patch stopped by Subterranean Books Friday afternoon, Senior Elliot Wilson was reading his book out loud in front of the store, while Junior Matthew Robinson and Jovan Miller a Freshman were reading to themselves in the front window of the bookstore.
