See schedule ocenter for hellenic studies is an educational center in the field of hellenic studies designed to rediscover humanism of the hellenic greeks. Hellenism for the center encompasses the evolution of the greek language and its culture as a central point of contact for all of the different civilizations of the ancient mediterranean world. It also includes interactions with foreign cultures and the diffusion of roman influences. This humanistic vision animates the center's main activities: (1) building and maintaining a world-class collection of resources for the study of the ancient greco-roman world; (2) making these resources available to the community of scholars, offering residential and non-residential fellowships to support research in the field, and providing a venue where the fellows and other scholars can collaborate and share their insights with diverse audiences both at the center and beyond through seminars, other forms of live presentations, and publications; (3) disseminating scholarship on the hellenic world in printed and electronic formats and developing information technologies to enhance existing methods and pioneer new avenues of research and teaching; and (4) designing and orchestrating activities for a global audience with the goal of enabling a wide range of participants, including non-traditional students, undergraduates, graduate students, scholars from other disciplines, and life-long learners to engage in the study and appreciation of hellenic culture. During calendar year 2013 the center for hellenic studies was able to provide the following resources: support to 59 research fellows, 43 of whom visited or lived on campus; support to 1 visiting scholar, who visited campus; funding for 11 internships in washington, dc and 18 scholarships for american and greek students participating in its programs in greece; organization of 5 seminars in which 51 faculty members/professionals and 22 undergraduates were able to participate; and hosting 9 faculty members and 14 undergraduates for 2 research symposiums it held during the year.
