This course will complete the second half of Beginning Latin 1 offered in the winter. The course is fast-paced, with the goal of finishing the textbook, Wheelock's Latin, at the end of the semester. While not super easy, and certainly requiring serious commitment to homework and studying for quizzes, this course is very rewarding.
I always love Professor Chaplin's passion in her teaching. The discussion sessions are very fruitful and are heavily based on assigned readings. If you don't read and think, it is hard to get involved. We have no exams but 4 papers: the first one is short, and the remaining are all 1800 words long. Professor Chaplin would like to see how you develop your thoughts using primary sources and the pace of reading and writing is comparatively fast.

Ms Chaplin is one of my favorite professors I have had. She is truly enthusiastic about the material and very engaging. One of the few classes that I look forward to every day. That said, she is a challenging grader, and there is an average of 150 pages of reading a week.
