Vergilian Society Translation Contest

First Annual Contest Debut Fall 2012

March 2012

Greetings!

Thank you for your interest in the Vergilian Society's first Translation Contest.  The passages, eligibility, prizes are in the process of being determined, and the dates for submissions and prizes will soon be announced.  Please expect our official opening of the contest in another message come May 2012, with advance registration available.  Passages will be made available to registrants come Fall 2012, and newcomers to the registration will have the opportunity to enroll.  The Vergilian Society expects to present its inaugural awards for this first Annual contest in Spring 2013.

Please keep us on your contact list so that you might be advised of developments.  And, forward this message to a colleague or Latin teacher friend whose students will want to participate.

Thank you for your interest and we look forward to seeing your students' excellent renditions and adaptations!
Yours sincerely,
Chris Ann Matteo, Ph.D.
