Classics Workshop

The Classics Workshop is intended to serve two functions, reflected in the two distinct meanings of the word workshop.
 
1.    First, it may be thought of as an informal lunch/office hour for students (both undergraduate and graduate) to have a space in which to do work (as in a workshop), to ask questions, or just to eat lunch and chat with fellow Classicists. Free food (pizza or cookies and snacks) will be provided for each meeting. There will always be at least one classics professor in attendance (often more) to bounce questions off of, help guide you through a homework assignment, discuss research, and so on.
 
2.    Second, it is meant to take the role of a Classics seminar, in which papers in progress can be presented and workshopped by soliciting feedback from professors and fellow students. There is no presentation scheduled for the first meeting, but students who are interested in presenting a paper at future meetings should email Rebecca Sears (rsears@wustl.edu) as soon as possible. I will announce presentations by email in advance of each workshop. On such occasions, those wishing to attend the presentation should plan to show up at the beginning of the meeting time (i.e., 1:00 or 2:00 PM).
 
In general, nothing is expected of attendees: no preparation is necessary and students of all levels are welcome.
