A joint meeting of The Classical Association of the Pacific Northwest and the Classical Association of the Canadian West will take place at the University of Washington in Seattle on March 12-13, 2010.

The keynote address will be delivered on Friday evening March 12 by Professor Kirk Freudenburg, Professor of Classics at Yale University.
