MERITI

IMPERATOR (NAPOLEON SUDERMAN) and STATE EDITOR LUKE ULICNY!

For the months of December and January, we choose to highlight Napoleon Suderman, better known as IMPERATOR, and Luke Ulicny, our faithful club co-presidents. Luke also runs the state newsletter, of which he has done a fantastic job. Both have made this year's Latin experience incredible. Under their leadership, our chapter has thrived. Thank you both!

News

This last quarter, WHS Latin students have been balancing midterm assessments. We trudge on in our studies of the Aeneid, Cambridge Latin Course, and all else Latin has to offer.

After winning 1st place for our skit, "Callamarius Certamen" on Boston Classic's Day (complete with realistic injury!), we have continued planning at-home for the state convention and many other events to come.

From the classroom to you, we bring such joys as the invention of PLENQUUI EQUUI. We hope you have a wonderful second semester.

Zo Clarke, editor.
