Graduate Update
In August the Department welcomed twenty new students into our graduate programs. Fourteen of these are studying for the M.A. degree in Greek, Latin, Classical Antiquity, or Classical Art and Archaeology; three will pursue the Master’s degree in the Art of Teaching (Latin). The latter include Amy Sommer, who earned her B.A. in Classics at Gustavus Adolphus College and is supported at CU by the Center for the Humanities and Arts (CHA) Arts and Sciences Fellowship. In addition three new students are studying for the Ph.D. in Classics. They are Jeremy Burgess, (B.A, M.A. University of Hawaii), who won a CHA Devaney Fellowship; Ben Gracy (B.A. Texas, M.A. University of New Mexico), who is supported by the coveted Chancellor’s Fellowship; and Brent Schmidt (B.A., M.A. University of Utah), who joins the team of beginning and intermediate Latin instructors. Watch this space for other news of this unusually large and talented class as they go on to do great things here at CU and beyond.
Meanwhile, four students will earn their Master’s degrees this spring: Ines Haelbig, Joanna Kingsbury, Jude Morris, and David Yates. Dave is already making plans to decamp for Providence, R.I., where he will begin studying for the Ph.D. at Brown University in the fall. Bundle up, Dave, and congratulations to all of our new graduates!
