Classics Society

About Us

The 2011-2012 Classics Society was formed with the intent to provide students with opportunities to enhance their undergraduate experience. We have held various events so far that have included movie and pub nights and our Intent to Register Information Session. The Society will be organizing lecture series and study groups in the future to help students achieve more in their studies. We have planned an exciting trip to the Royal Ontario Museum on March 24th that will give students the opportunity to participate in a guided tour of the exhibits and an artifact handling session. We are looking forward to filling next year with even more opportunities!
