History Alive! Ancient Greece and Rome

Undergraduate

In this course, students will bring ancient history to life by playing two full “Reacting to the Past” games: “The Threshold of Democracy: Athens in 403 BCE” and “The Crisis of Catiline: Rome, 63 BCE”. Students are assigned character roles with specific goals: they must communicate effectively, collaborate, and compete to advance their objectives to try to “win” the game. Prerequisite(s): Second-year standing or higher.
