Transylvania & Classical Languages, by Bridget Almas

On Tuesday morning, December 5, Bridget Almas will be the guest speaker at Niskayuna Rotary. Bridget will describe a youth exchange program bringing youth from the Transylvania region of Romania, to Schenectady next fall. This is a program organized by the Unitarian Universalist Society of Schenectady. Bridget will also describe how she received a Rotary Scholarship to visit the United Nations when she was young, which impacted her life and career. Bridget is currently a software developer and founding member of the locally based Alpheios Project, Ltd. (http://alpheios.net), a 501(c)3 entity whose mission is to make the reading and study of classical languages as enjoyable as possible while developing a deep, data-backed understanding of how and why people learn language.

The seminar will be from 7:15 AM to 8:15 AM at the Blue Ribbon Restaurant and Bakery 1801 State St. Schenectady. As always, the public is invited. See ya there!
