Title: Foreign Language Association of Virginia 2013 Conference
Body: From http://flavaweb.org/conference 2013 Conference: Go Global October 3-5, 2013 Williamsburg, Virginia The FLAVA Conference is a great place to meet colleagues, see old friends and get energized for the rest of the school year. Last year almost 600 educators attended representing more than a dozen languages. Many individual language associations hold their professional meetings and luncheons during the conference (contact your affiliate president). It’s a place to hear language: this year, all sessions are in the target language, unless the topic is of general interest. The FLAVA Conference is a place to expand skills: all sessions are linked to national teaching standards. Also, for the second year, VDOE will offer a Modified Oral Proficiency Interview workshop Wednesday and Thursday, Oct. 2 and 3rd (attendance arranged through county foreign language supervisors). The conference is a source of ideas that boost technology in the classroom: student collaboration via Skype, technology in the Chinese classroom, memes in the classroom, digital storytelling and more. The conference is a great place to get ideas to take back to the classroom and use right away. This year sessions include everything from the general – “Engaging and Motivating the Inhibited Language Learner” – to the specific – “the new AP German exam,” “Anime and Manga in the Japanese classroom,” and many, many others. The FLAVA Conference is an opportunity to experience culture: Embassy presentations, cultural sessions, museum booth and movies. The conference is a place to be inspired. Dynamic, passionate speakers and awards remind us why we chose this profession and inspire us to strive. Learn more and register at http://flavaweb.org/conference

Title: Request for Proposals from Classics Departments
Body: From http://apaclassics.org/index.php/apa_blog/apa_blog_entry/request_for_proposals_from_classics_departments In 2012 the National Italian American Foundation (NIAF) received a gift from a donor whose request was that the funds be used to support students and programs focusing on Latin, ancient Roman archaeology, ancient Roman civilizations, or other related subjects. NIAF therefore invites colleges and universities in the United States to submit proposals for the development and implementation of a program or program(s) with a budget of $500,000 to support the study of Latin, ancient Roman archaeology, ancient Roman civilization, and other related subjects. The grant will support opportunities for students to study abroad, conduct research, and pursue fellowships in the United States and in Italy. Qualified college and university departments should be part of a U.S.-based, accredited college or university and have demonstrated achievement in the fields of Latin, ancient Roman archaeology, ancient Roman civilization or related subjects. Instructions for submitting proposals appear in an RFP which can be downloaded from NIAF’s website at http://www.niaf.org/grants. The deadline for submissions is November 1, 2013.

We are particularly interested in innovative and exploratory programs at different levels, wholly or partially held at the Villa Vergiliana at Cumae. Tours involving Campania are particularly sought after for 2015, as well as those with an emphasis on Etruria, Gaul or Greece. But prospective directors are invited to submit applications for programs that encompass any area(s) of the Greco-Roman world. The Chair of the Villa Management Committee will supply prospective directors with details regarding compensation, minimal enrollments, and shared direction. For more information go to http://www.vergiliansociety.org/call-for-tour-directors-2015 --- The Vergilian Society is soliciting proposals for the Twenty-First Annual Symposium Cumanum, to take place at the Villa Vergiliana in Cuma at the end of June, 2015. We will consider a proposal on any theme pertaining to Virgil and his times, although preference may be given to a subject that has not been treated recently. Each proposal should be prepared by the person who is intending to direct the symposium, or by the lead person if co-directors are envisioned. The successful director will have logistical assistance from the Vergilian Society’s Italian staff and from the executive committee; a set of guidelines is available to assist in planning.
