Penn's "Classics Board" is both a student club and Undergraduate Advisory Board!
We do several things:
- Serve as a liaison between students and faculty, attending department meetings to advise on the curriculum and other issues,
- Help students connect and network with our faculty through academic events: "Faculteas," Roundtables, and Certamen,
- Organize social events to create a tight-knit community, such as movie nights, board games, and Secret Caesar (gift exchange among members),
- Collaborate with the Undergraduate Chair in organizing information sessions on topics like study abroad, Senior Research Papers, and applying for graduate programs,
- And help plan the department's Senior Colloquium every April.
Feel free to email us at pennclassicsboard@gmail.com, or directly at jcheeva@sas.upenn.edu and selimaa@sas.upenn.edu (Co-Chairs John and Selima, respectively). New members are welcome throughout the school year!
