\u201cThis project gave me hope for the study of Classics. There are no students at my school that share my excitement, but here I found other people like me from all over the country. I loved to see everyone \u2018fighting\u2019 to take the next sentence.\u201d (Ben Olson, Loyola Academy, Wilmette, IL)<\/p>\n
“I got much better at sight reading and got more familiar with Medieval Latin and Latin in general.” (Cricket MacDonald, Concord Carlisle High School, MA)<\/p>\n
\u201cI really enjoyed communicating with my team about the projects but being able to actually finish each sprint on my own\u2026 I\u2019m glad that I could help the process of organizing it.\u201d (Josephine Xie, St. Andrew’s School, Middletown, DE)<\/p>\n
\u201cLucy McInerney was great to have as the leader for my group! She was very passionate about the subject\u2026 which really enhanced the overall experience.\u201d (Alexander Korb, Irvington High School, NY)<\/p>\n
\u201cOne thing I really enjoyed about the program was how flexible it was\u2026 The mix of early morning meetings and asynchronous work worked well\u2026 and Mr. Karper\u2019s enthusiasm for Ancient Greek made every session fun and engaging.\u201d (Milin Torgalkar, Rye Country Day School, NY)<\/p>\n
\u201cThe most valuable lesson I took away from DCC is that there is so much more nuance to Vergil than meets the eye\u2026 Selecting commentaries and translating the lines so closely really makes you recognize the small details.\u201d (Sophie Yang, Lawrenceville School, NJ)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Huge thanks are due to everybody involved, especially our crack team of supervisors, who met with the students on Zoom for 3-5 hours per week, read with them, used their feedback to edit and create notes, and in many cases mentored them in the process of writing their own notes in the DCC style and edited their work.<\/p>\n

It has been a wonderful summer for philology here at DCC. We hosted seventy-five high school students from seventeen states for online internships. They contributed to eight ongoing projects. Here are some sample quotes from participants: \u201cThis project gave me … Continue reading
