Paradise Preparations

April 25 is the graduation for those who have 400 credits (more on that later.) and thus, the Walkabout starts the week following. To start getting in the spirit, one possible assignment if you have not been exposed to a lot of classical poetry as Thoreau had, is to listen to and translate the song "30 Story Tree" by Adriano Celentano, read Dante's de volgari eloquentia, and prepare a lecture relating these themes to Thoreaus' Walden experiment.
