 "Things
are a little chaotic over here," e-mailed Colleen Kookoothe '06 from
Rome in something of an understatement, "but it's a great experience
to be a part of."
The JCU junior is studying in Rome this semester as millions throng
the city for the funeral of Pope John Paul II.
Colleen was interviewed by Bob Franz on NewsRadio
WSPD 1370 in her hometown of Toledo. Her uncle, Attorney Cormac
DeLaney '71, recorded the 5-minute interview and sent it to JCU.
