THE DAY

One campus, one day, three movements

A symposium is a single day: lectures, student work, and a workshop.

01

Expert Lectures

Led by university faculty, exploring the interconnection of the past and the future. Past lectures include The Myth of Theuth and Generative AI, and Classics in Translation.

02

Student Panels

Undergraduate classicists are available to answer questions about their journey, talking with the room as peers.

03

Workshops

Hands-on sessions led by faculty and graduate students make ancient languages and texts usable and personal, including if this is your first line.
