Synopsis

On November 10, CHS Greece welcomed the Harvard Club of Greece to its premises. The visit commenced with a meeting with distinguished Harvard University faculty members, namely Kimberley Patton, Professor of the Comparative and Historical Study of Religion; Michael Puett, Walter C. Klein Professor of Chinese History and Anthropology; and Nicolas Prevelakis, Associate Senior Lecturer on Social Studies and Assistant Director of Curricular Development at the Center for Hellenic Studies. Following the discussion with the three Harvard faculty members, Christos Giannopoulos, the Center's Managing Director, delivered a comprehensive presentation on the diverse activities of CHS Greece, followed by a tour of the building. The alumni also attended a small reception organized in their honor by the CHS Greece team. Their trip to Nafplio included visits to local museums and other sites of cultural significance. The visit deepened the connection between the university's alumni and CHS Greece, and provided valuable insights into the Center's substantial impact on the Harvard and local communities, respectively, and its collaborative initiatives with various constituencies.
