Let's Get Classic.. with Classics Day!
Updated: Dec 12, 2019
Wow! It's already our second MassJCL event of the year! On December 5th, JCLers from all corners of Massachusetts came to Boston University's George Sherman Union to celebrate the Classics!
This year's theme was Greek and Roman calendars, and showing how our fellow ancient people told time. The seminars were taught by professors who were experts in part of the Classics. A special talk was given by Michelle Wu, a Boston City Council member, who was once the president of National JCL!
There were also some really delicious sandwiches, as well as cookies to go along (mmm). To add to the fun, many schools participated in hilarious skits that had to do with Classics Day, this year's National JCL quote (Omnis summa ope niti decet, ne vitam silentio transeant.), calendars, or telling time. BLSJCL's skit was about three people presenting ideas for their Classics Day skit, which finally, they chose to be about making a skit for Classics Day. Wait, what? Have we
Thanks to everyone who attended!
