Session Summary:
Calvin did just great today! Our session together today was a change of pace, because Calvin asked me to help him on a paper he has due in Latin class about the Roman authors, Pliny the Elder and Pliny the Younger. It was a lot of fun, tracking down sources, discussing various points of interest and importance out of those sources, and discussing the various reasons why the writings of these two men remain important to us today. We spent the first hour working on that, then spent the last half-hour of our time together tackling how the Romans expressed dates, which was quite different from how we express them. Calvin did a great job with that material. Thanks, Calvin!
