Lunch Hour Colloquium
Classics Conference Room, HSSB 4065 Fridays 1-2PM

In fall 2005 the Classics Department introduced a noon-time
colloquium for faculty and graduate students to share
current research projects with one another.
In addition to providing a forum for discussion of new work,
this is an opportunity for graduate students especially to
preview papers for conferences and job interviews.
