Latin III Students:
Now that the National Latin Exam has been held (and some of you have taken it) I want to review where we are in terms of getting credit.
Any of you who scored a Magna Cum Laude or above will receive credit for Proficiency (I am not absolutely sure of the score you need but this is my assumption at this point - more to come). Others will need to achieve a similar score on a similar test at the end of May.
I realize that I was quite inconsistent with Latin III meetings first semester. Since the first of February I have held class regularly on Tuesdays and Fridays at lunch. I know you all have a lot of demands on your time; this is the time of the year to evaluate what you want to do: do you want to make a commitment to learning the material? Just coming to the sessions is not enough. You will be tested on your proficiency at a Latin III level and must commit to learning the material on your own.
Students who are interested in pursuing Latin at Reed College next year in the Young Scholars Program need to talk to their counselors ASAP, as applications are due April 1, 2013.
Please come tomorrow, Friday, at lunch to talk about what your plans are for the rest of the year.
Thanks!! See you tomorrow!!
Magistra
