We might not be able to travel the world this spring but the Department of Classics has created two new spring courses to look forward to!

CLAS/HIST 3V70 Digital Modeling in Archaeology (0.5 credit)

Introduction to digital modeling of archaeological artifacts, alongside ethical considerations associated with their utilization.
