PhotOS by Courtney StrII.r The BG News

ACT IT OUT: The Humanities Troupe (from left to right: graduate student Jeff Larocque, senior Annie Bishop and junior Jasmyn Green) performs "The Othello Problem" in the Union theater Tuesday Larocque said the groups mam goal is to bridge gaps among different cultures "Each student is suffering on [his or her] own. more or less, at being left out in their own community." he said *On campus, here at BGSU. I see that every day As students, we tend to stick with people we know." "The Othello Problem" was about three students - one Russian, one black and one white - looking to fit in at their school and among their classmates The play was titled "The Othello Problem' because the char- acters said they thought Othello's (a character from a Shakespearean tragedy) actual problem was self-doubt, not jealousy.
