I hope to write about a library speaker named Kenneth Price coming to the ZSR on September 24th. Price is the co-editor of The Walt Whitman Archive, a comprehensive source that archives Walt Whitman’s work and life history. The reason I find this speaker newsworthy is because of the number of English majors, grad students, and faculty interested in Walt Whitman’s work. I’m currently in a literature class where we just read his work Leaves of Grass. I feel like this news story will appeal to a large group of Wake Forest students in addition to those who read for entertainment.
