When you create your account, you'll be able to choose one of the many affiliations we have on file, or if your affiliation isn't available, choose "Not Listed" and then type your affiliation in.

Additionally, note just a few of the sessions dedicated to Ancient (Literature) and Classics available this year (there are other sessions, too, so take a look around!):

• Ancient-Modern Relations
