Information
Our Meetings
65 Oakfield Avenue
We hold weekly meetings every Thursday evening from 6pm. These are a mixture of academic and more social events, ranging from academic debates and guest lectures to pub quizzes and games nights. Sometimes we'll be at the pub, sometimes in a lecture theatre, crazy or chill, there'll be something for everyone.
Academic Discussions
This year we will be holding some bi-weekly additional academic discussions alongside our regular meetings, ensuring we're doing all we can to give you that classical scholarly fix you're craving. These will be either a book discussion of an ancient text or modern adaptation, or an academic lecture from post-grad students, members of the faculty or other guests every other week (so each occurring every 4 weeks), and will be held at 65 Oakfield Avenue at 5pm on Thursday, just before our socials. The inaugural book club is on 'Circe' by Madeline Miller and will be on the 28th of September. Hope to see you there!

Big believer that Latin is more interesting than Ancient Greek and a huge Ovid and Suetonius fan. So, if you have an ex who became an animal or good gossip, I’d love to hear it.
