We'll be living, working, and playing right in this neighborhood. I'll be teaching CLCS 335, 'Tales of Gods and Heroes,' a no-prerequisite introduction to classical mythology that fulfils the Western Heritage requirement for the SLA Core Curriculum. We'll supplement our reading and class discussions with trips to the overwhelming collections in the great museums of Florence, the Uffizi and Bargello, as well as perhaps an excursion to see the ancient Roman ruins in nearby Fiesole. We are adding new courses all the time, too. These academic curricula, which have been in planning since 1987, have recently come to fruition in the University Senate.
Plans are also underway to expand our Greek literature offerings.
