Hellenisteon! Students Speak Ancient Greek in New Club
Thanks to a Braniff student, the language of the Gospels comes alive every Monday in Anselm 224.
+ Read MoreOften the question isn't “Why should I study a classical language?” but “When can I find the time?” Since 1976 the University of Dallas Summer Program has provided the opportunity to study Greek and Latin outside the limits of the regular academic year. Our summer learners include undergraduate and graduate students from our own and other institutions; high school teachers seeking accreditation, review, or deepening of knowledge; and a number of people who simply want to be able to study good books in the original language. High school students who have completed the junior year and will be 16 years old by July 1st are also encouraged to apply.
For application information:
