This just arrived in my mailbox today. Some of you may be able to donate, while others might be interested in applying for a scholarship or fellowship.Dear Friends,Salvete from Rome! We are well into our eighth summer of bringing students to Europe to study Classical languages and literature. Later this week, our Living Latin in Rome students will recite Cicero’s Third Catilinarian Oration on the steps of the Temple of Concord, where it was first delivered to the Roman people. Experiences like this, connecting with both ancient texts and the environments that created them, can have a profound and lasting effect on a young scholar, and your support makes them possible.At the Paideia Institute, we believe that opportunities like these should be made available to as many students as possible. This year we offered full scholarships for our summer programs to eleven students, and financial assistance to an additional four. Read more about our scholarship programs here, and please consider making a donation to help ensure that financial need does not exclude deserving students from these extraordinary educational opportunities.All of our work depends on you, our generous supporters—alumni, parents, Classicists, enthusiasts, and the many friends who believe, as we do, that the study of language, literature, and the ancient world is an immensely life-enriching experience. Please click here to join with us in bringing that experience to an ever wider group of young people.Jason C.
