Ancient and Biblical Language Program to be Offered Sunday, March 2, 2003 23:10 EST
STEUBENVILLE, OhioFranciscan University of Steubenville announces the
debut of the Summer Institute of Ancient and Biblical Languages, in June 2003.
The institute offers intensive courses in Latin, Greek, and introductory
courses in biblical Hebrew. It is designed to provide students with the
opportunity to study and learn how to read classical, early Christian, and
biblical texts.
"The institute is a great way for students to learn Greek, Latin, or
Hebrew in an exhilarating environment," says Franciscan University Classics
Professor Dr. Joseph Almeida. "Students of theology, philosophy, and
ancient history will especially benefit from this experience."
Undergraduate students or qualified high school students can earn 12
foreign language credits for completing the summer Greek or Latin programs,
and six credits for summer Hebrew.
The intensive Greek and Latin programs will each run for 10 weeks, and
introductory Hebrew will run for five weeks. Full-time Franciscan
University theology and classics faculty members will teach the classes;
tuition varies with each program.
