Today is the last day to register for the upcoming Society of Classical Studies (SCS) conference in Boston (Jan. 4–7, 2018). You can click here to register before the price increases. Members also get a fairly steep discount, and you can register as a member at the same time you register for the conference. Compared to some science conferences, membership fees are a pittance, but they do go to providing scholarships and other services.
For those unaware, the SCS is the premiere North American Classical studies organization. In their own words:
The Society for Classical Studies (SCS), founded as the American Philological Association in 1869 by “professors, friends, and patrons of linguistic science,” is the principal learned society in North America for the study of ancient Greek and Roman languages, literatures, and civilizations. While the majority of its members are university and college Classics teachers, members also include scholars in other disciplines, primary and secondary school teachers, and interested lay people. For over a century this community has relied on the Association to produce several series of scholarly books and texts; the journal, TAPA; and an annual meeting each January in conjunction with the Archaeological Institute of America.
