Students may also join local choral groups. Most students live in furnished apartments in the city. They are responsible for their own meals and may cook in their apartments or eat at the University cafeteria or any of the various small restaurants in the city. Rooms with families are sought for students preferring this arrangement. Students are expected to conduct themselves in such a way as to reflect positively on the group and to achieve the goals of the program.
Academics are to be taken seriously.
Attendance in classes and on field trips is required. Whether living in apartments or with families, students must assume special responsibilities regarding cleanliness, noise, safety, etc. Norms of behavior for adults in an Italian residential setting rather than those for students in American dorms or student apartments will be expected. Application forms are available from Prof. Rebecca Ammerman in Lawrence 03 or from the Secretary of the Dept. of the Classics in Lawrence 01.
