Fr. John Wehling to teach Greek in Spring 2009
Fr. John Wehling, Pastor of St. Matthew's Orthodox Church in Green Bay, who will be teaching first-semester ancient Greek for us this spring 2009. Fr. Wehling received his earliest theological training at Asbury Theological Seminary in Kentucky; further study in early Church theology and spirituality drew him to the Orthodox Tradition, and he received training as an Orthodox priest at St Tikhon's Orthodox Theological Seminary in Pennsylvania. Fr. Wehling has a strong background in koine/biblical/ecclesiastical Greek, which he continues to use in his own studies and in his parish instruction, and is excited to introduce our students to classical Greek. Welcome aboard!

American Classical League's National Latin Exam 2008
We are very pleased to announce the results of the American Classical League's National Latin Exam, administered to our Latin 102 students last semester. This exam tests not only a student's understanding of Latin, but also their comprehension of Roman culture. All the students who took this test scored well above the national average. In fact, they all did so well that they received special awards from the ACL! The students who took the exam are: Bi Liu (a local high school senior), Elizabeth Lindaur, Rachel Waymel, and Adam Horn. Congratulations to Bill Hyland and his class for their great work.
