News for Novice and Experienced Speakers of Latin

From Nancy Llewelyn, President of SALVI (the Septentrionale Americanum Latinitatis Vivae Institutum, otherwise known as the North American Institute for Living Latin Studies) comes the news that there will be two Rusticationes Virginianae in West Virginia in 2009! One Rusticatio will be for novice and beginning speakers of Latin only, while the other will be for everyone, including more experienced conversationalists. Registration information hasn't been published to the SALVI website yet but it will be similar to previous Rusticationes, which you can read about at http://www.latin.org. Keep checking SALVI as there should be more news in about a month or so. (Gratias tibi ago to Robert Patrick for sharing this!)
