2008 Soul of Athens Launched

The 2008 edition of Soul of Athens has launched. Produced by the School of Visual Communication at Ohio University, this year's group looked at Wellness within the Athens County, Ohio, community. 30 stories are grouped into the categories Mind, Body, Spirit, and Place.
