Salvete amici!
I, Titus Marius Crispus, am the newest member of the Societas. I am happy to be a member of such a fine organization!
I am a Junior in High School in San Antonio, Texas, USA. I have just finished my first year of Latin. I do, however, play Certamen in the NJCL (National Junior Classical League), so my experience with Latin exceeds my official in-class education. For those of you who don't know, Certamen is a very competitive game played in teams of four people (2 grammar, 1 mythology, 1 history/culture) in the NJCL. My teammates and I will be representing the state of Texas in Novice Certamen at the national convention in Virginia at the end of this month. The Texas Novices from last year won 1st place, and we hope to do the same.
Excluding the Latin language, my experience in Classics is lacking. I have picked up a small knowledge of Roman History/Culture and Greek Mythology from Certamen practice, but I would greatly enjoy learning more about everything, especially the Greek language and the 'Religio Romana'.
I am also willing to help with web development if needed/desired. I have a good deal of experience with XHTML, CSS, PHP, and MySQL.
Is there an official procedure one must follow to join a collegium? I haven't been able to find anything in the regula about that.
Gratias vobis ago,
Titus Marius Crispus
