CERES, with support from the Hellenic Heritage Foundation, is pleased to announce a new initiative in Greek Studies at the University of Toronto commencing in September 2014. In the first year, we will offer one course in Modern Greek language and two courses focusing on contemporary Greek politics and society. The 2014 launch will become a basis for the future development of Greek curriculum at the the U of T, offering a range of opportunities focusing on culture, language, politics, society, and the region. On 2 May, CERES joined the Hellenic Heritage Foundation of Toronto, the Consul General of Greece, Dimitris Azemopoulos, and other partners to participate in the official announcement of the new initiative at the office of the Greek Consulate.
