Summer programs, 2011

The AIRC is already busy with summer programs!  Currently, the AIRC is hosting and running the NEU summer program in film and communications, with filming at Ostia Antica. Each team of 4-5 students will produce a short, 5-minute video on a unique aspect of Ostia's cultural significance, with particular emphasis on its sustainability and preservation. 

May 23 will see the arrival of our Holy Cross Maymester group, for a month-long exploration of ancient Rome and its cultural legacy.  Travel will include sites such as Hadrian's Villa and Tiberius' villa at Sperlonga.

Shortly thereafter will arrive students for the Azusa University and for our summer excavation field school at Ostia Antica, run with the University of Bologna. We're in for a busy summer!
