Things are continuing to come together–and there will never be a better time to sign-up than now.

1/26 Tuesday – Philosophical Happy Hour (5:30-7:00pm ET). Grab a drink and have a chat about things that really matter! Always open to suggested topics: any questions you may have, feel free to bring them. Open to the public. Use the “Send Us a Message” form here (write “happy hour” in the message box) and we’ll see you on Teams!

1/27 Wednesday – Latin Class (8:00-9:00pm ET). Magister Sterling Contreras will be continuing with the second installment of our weekly Latin class with two sessions per week (allowing more students the opportunity to attend), guiding students through Lingua Latina Per Se Illustrata: Familia Romana and helping us all to attain fluency. Last week–especially the Saturday session–was a rousing success, so here’s hoping we’ll see an improved turnout on Wednesday!

1/29 Friday – Open Chat (9:30-10:15am ET). Our regular Friday-morning open chat, allowing conversation between those in the West and those in the East–part of the truly international nature of the Lyceum Institute. A good way to bring the thinking of one week to a close and launch into the next.

1/30 Saturday – Latin Class (10-11am ET). Our second option for studying Latin! Magister Sterling Contreras continues guiding students through Lingua Latina Per Se Illustrata: Familia Romana and helping us all to attain fluency. Last week saw many participants across a range of proficiency manage to start their progress

1/30 Saturday – Seminar Discussion Sessions. Moving into the third week of our 2021 Winter Seminars–how fast it flies! At 1:15-2:15pm ET, Metaphysics: The Discovery of Ens inquantum Ens investigates the means of discovering the principles of metaphysics within the context of a discussion of scientific operations of the intellect in general. Afterwards, at 3:00-4:00pm ET, Ethics: The Good Life undertakes to think through our imperfect bearing toward happiness in this life, and how we might rectify that.

1/31 Sunday – Open Chat Asia (4:00-5:30am ET/5:00-6:30pm GMT+8). Okay, so technically this is next week–but one of our members hosts an open chat for those on the other side of the world. A great opportunity for those living in far-removed parts of the world to meet some members and chat. Open to the public. Use the “Send Us a Message” form here (write “Open Chat Asia” in the message box) and we’ll see you on Teams!

We’re continuing to grow in members and participation–8 new members already signed up in January alone. Rates for membership will be increasing this year–so sign up now!
