The University of Oregon Department of Classics is excited to be hosting the 52nd meeting of the Classical Association of the Pacific Northwest (CAPN) on Friday, March 15th and Saturday, March 16th, 2024.
Friday, March 15th, 2024, beginning at 6:30 pm - Reception and Keynote
Saturday, March 16th, 2024, beginning at 8:30 am - Paper sessions and roundtables.
Your registration fee covers the keynote and reception on Friday night and the conference on Saturday, including a breakfast and lunch.
Registration is now closed.
The keynote lecture will be given by Professor Ann Kuttner of the University of Pennsylvania at 7:00 PM on Friday, March 15th in the Gerlinger Alumni Lounge.
Generally speaking I budgeted 30 minutes per talk session. So a 20 minute talk will allow about 8 minutes for questions, with 2 minutes transition time. If you want to talk a great deal and do not require a response, you can talk for 28 minutes; if you want feedback (the correct choice), you should limit yourself to about 18 minutes.
Conference activities will take place in Allen Hall on the University of Oregon Eugene campus.
