Independent Study          
                     
       Sometimes students want to follow their own interests and learn more about a particular area of the ancient world. Independent study offers that opportunity.  This is usually a one semester course, done in the fall term.
       Over the past several years some very interesting projects have been done:

1. a study of ancient music

2. Roman food (with an accompanying banquet)

3. architecture and aqueducts

4. filming a video of a poem of Catullus

  In order to do an independent study, the student must speak with me first, then meet with the Dean of Students to have it approved.
