All our graduate students participate in research projects, over the summer or during the academic year, and get ample opportunity to teach a variety of undergraduate courses once they are more advanced in the program. All students can sign up for the pedagogy group led by a designated faculty member, and advanced students receive coaching for paper presentations at conferences and job interviews and the like. More details can be found on our website (<a href="http://classics.uc.edu/">http://classics.uc.edu</a>).<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt; "><span>We are in the process of hiring up to three additional faculty members and cover every aspect of the study of the ancient world, from the Greek Bronze Age to Late Antiquity, from archaeology to philology, even specialized historical disciplines such as epigraphy and papyrology. About 35-40 graduate students are normally in residence, while a handful more are spending a year abroad. The resources put at our disposal by the Semple Fund allow us to pamper graduate students in a variety of ways and to maintain fieldwork projects in Cyprus, Greece (Knossos, Pylos), and Italy (Pompeii). The Burnam Classical Library is the world's largest Classics library (currently ca. 250,000 volumes) and attracts a variety of scholars from around the world year round.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt; "><span>Your efforts on behalf of students are appreciated.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt; "><span>Yours sincerely,</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span>Peter van Minnen, Head of the Department of Classics</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span></span><span style="font-family: 'Gill Sans Light'; "><o:p></o:p></span></p></div></blockquote></div></body></html>
