| Description Program Srvc Accom | In the 2017-18 fiscal year, the Davenant Institute continued to run online Latin courses and summer residential programs, as well as hiring a teaching fellow in California, Colin Redemer, who organized reading groups and conferences and lectured on behalf of the organization. We organized or co-sponsored seven conferences around the country, as well as a lecture series in Moscow, Idaho, and offered travel bursaries for several indigent attendees. We also awarded two $2,500 fellowsips to graduate and post-graduate students in the UK pursuing research related to our mission. Our largest work was in the area of publishing, where we put out seven new books as well as magazines and pamphlets. | DescriptionProgramSrvcAccomTxt |
