| This part of the website describes our JCL activities.
Here you will find information about conventions (Ludi,
CJCL,
and NJCL),
exams (Medusa
and NLE),
certamen, and other fun events. Also, check out the
calendar. As the Forum was a hub of
daily life in Ancient Rome, the Res section is the nucleus
of activities of the Harker JCL. This photo above shows the
Forum in Rome as seen from the Tabularium. The Senate house,
law courts, and important temples were here. Orations were
delivered from the rostra, or speaker's platform.
The Forum was a place to meet people and transact business. |
