During this same time, and throughout the period covered by this report, the School was also looking to the future, with much thought and effort going toward laying the groundwork for the improvements in infrastructure that will be critical to the School’s evolution in the twenty-first century. Major grants from the Andrew W.

mong its primary functions, the American School of Classical Studies at Ath- ens is a teaching institution, introducing graduate students, through its academic- year program, to the sites and monuments of Greek civilization. The School also providesA similarly structured learning opportunities to undergraduates, secondary school teachers, and college faculty through its Summer Sessions, and to graduate students and professors in Byzantine studies from North American or other universities through its bi- ennial Summer Session in Medieval Greek language and philology, offered through the Gennadius Library. The School’s academic curriculum is built around extensive travel to sites and museums throughout Greece, augmented by seminars and lectures by a range of specialists in clas- sics, art history, archaeology, history, and other areas that take place both in the field and at the School itself. The program is overseen by the Andrew .W Mellon Professor of Classical Studies, assisted by the Rhys Carpenter Faculty Fellow in Classical Studies. Annually, two appointed Whitehead Visiting Professors lead seminars in an area of their current research or special interest. In addition, a Wiener Visiting Research Professor adds a science-based perspective through formalized seminars and participation in School field trips. Outside the classroom, the School’s vibrant academic community and the active scholarly scene in Athens, as exemplified by the extensive lecture and program schedules offered by the American School and other foreign schools and Greek institutions in the greater Athens area, provide students and teachers alike with unparalleled opportunities to broaden their scope of knowledge, augment their area of research interest, and immerse themselves in Athens’ thriving intellectual community.

 10  ARCHAEOLOGICAL FIELDWORK

2007–08 Regular Member Joel Rygorsky recording excavation context information at Ancient Corinth.

ince its earliest years, the School has sponsored archaeological exploration. In 1896, it began digging at Ancient Corinth, and in 1931, the School opened a second site in the heart of Athens: the Agora, the ancient city’s political and economic center. Both of theseS excavations, which continue to this day, have contributed immeasurably to expanding our knowledge of the ancient Greek world and have yielded invaluable research material for School Members, staff, and other scholars, as well as opportunities for students to gain hands-on experience in excavation techniques. Numerous other archaeological projects by cooperating universities and colleges are carried out under the auspices of the School, in cooperation with the Greek Ministry of Culture. Recognized in 1928 as the legal sponsor of American archaeological research in Greece, the School acts as the official link between American researchers and the Greek Archaeological Service of the Ministry of Culture and is broadly responsible for assigning and supervising permits for all American excavations, surveys, and synergasias (cooperative Greek/American projects) in Greece. The School di- rectly funds and organizes two permanent excavations: the Athenian Agora and Ancient Corinth.

he American School counts its research facilities as central to its academic mission. Thanks to its superb libraries—the Blegen Library, dedicated to ancient Greek and Roman studies, and the Gennadius Library, concentrating on post-antique Greece— theT School attracts an international array of scholars who consider these combined libraries one of the world’s great resources for the study of Hellenism. The Blegen and the Gennadius serve as important research tools for members of the School (both students and academic professionals), members of the other foreign schools in Athens, staff of the Greek Archaeo- logical Service, and the academic and scholarly community of Greece in general. Substantial investment has recently been made in digitizing information resources at the two libraries. The Archives consist of collections of material related to the history and work of the School, as well as archival collections given to the Gennadius Library. The Gennadius Li- brary houses papers, notebooks, diaries, and letters of pivotal figures in the history and letters of modern Greece and the Balkans, while the School archives, located in the Blegen Library, comprise records related to the mission of the School, excavation records from American archaeological projects in Greece, and personal papers of American archaeol- ogists and architects working in Greece, as well as extensive holdings of photographs of Greece during the early years of the American School. The School’s Wiener Laboratory has gained recognition as a unique research facility supporting researchers who seek to apply analytical techniques drawn from the natural, physical, and biological sciences to archaeology and history. Through a professorship, fel- lowships, associate memberships, travel grants, consultations, lectures, seminars, and work- shops, the Laboratory plays an integral role in encouraging scientific work and in enlarging the base of scholarship and scope of research in Greek archaeology. The Wiener Laboratory houses a growing scientific library that supports research in archaeological science.

he American School’s Publications Office, located in Princeton, New Jersey, is re- sponsible for producing publications related to the mission of the School. One of its most important roles is publishing the final reports of excavations at Corinth Tand the Athenian Agora. The journal Hesperia, published quarterly since 1932, is one of the world’s leading venues for scholarship on Greek studies, presenting articles on School- directed and School-sponsored excavations as well as other original research. Also pro- duced by the School’s Administrative Office, and distributed twice a year to all alumni and supporters, is a newsletter, ákoue, which reports research, events, and activities related to the School’s and its Members’ work throughout Greece and beyond and includes a special insert on Gennadius Library news.

 19  Hesperia Editor Tracey Cullen in 2007 represented the journal in accepting an Award for Excellence in Professional and Scholarly Publishing from the As- sociation of American Publishers.

dministration of the School’s current operations and the development of future directions are the result of joint efforts by a network of staff and volunteers in the United States and in Greece. AThe School’s academic programs are supervised by a Managing Committee, consisting of approximately 317 representatives (predominantly faculty members from a consortium of over 180 North American colleges and universities). The Managing Committee oversees the operation of the School, including the School’s excavation and academic programs; ap- points the Director and other officers of the School; and participates in budgeting activities. The Chair of the Managing Committee also serves ex officio as a member of the School’s Board of Trustees, composed of committed, distinguished men and women from business and academia and responsible for all aspects of the School, including the operation and maintenance of School property, investment of the School’s endowment, approval of budgets and appointments, and general advocacy and fundraising on the School’s behalf. In 1995, the School Board established a separate Gennadius Library Board to which it delegated its responsibilities for general operations, advocacy, and fundraising in connection with the Li- brary. This Board consists of distinguished women and men from the United States, Greece, and elsewhere. In Greece, the School is headed by a Director (typically an American university profes- sor on leave in order to head the School) appointed for a five-year term. The Director over- sees a staff in Athens numbering approximately eighty people, responsible for administering the day-to-day operations of the School, including the academic program and research and other facilities, and for facilitating its continued function as a non-profit institution operat- ing on Greek soil. In the U.S., staff in the School’s Princeton, New Jersey office facilitate the administrative activities of the Managing Committee and its subcommittees.
