It was a great honor to welcome Provost Sophia Papaioannou of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens to our Department of Classical Studies.
We are especially proud that our BU Philhellenes Summer Program has been part of the summer program collaboration with the University of Athens ,the BAAG Program and Study in Greece, which has now continued for four years. We look forward to our next summer collaboration and to the many exciting opportunities for future partnerships with this esteemed university.
