The Beta chapter holds weekly study sessions

for Classics majors and minors, where

students can chat, do homework, and get

free tutoring from upper level students in

Greek or Latin.

During the Fall Quarter, we held a

Classics mixer for students to meet and

speak with the faculty of the Classics department.

This included free snacks and a

game of Classical Pictionary, and was very

well-attended.

During the Winter Quarter, we produced

the annual Eta Sigma Phi calendar,

with students and faculty from the Classics

department featured in scenes from

antiquity.

In the Spring Quarter, we held a Classics

movie night, watching Medea with free

pizza and pop.

Our chapter co-sponsors an annual

lamb roast with the Classics department,

where awards are given out by the faculty

to students who have done exceptionally

well during the year, and where the senior

gift is presented to the faculty by outgoing

students. This event is catered and always

well-attended.
