This website is designed to be used as a resource for the Classical Mythology class taught
at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
If you are not enrolled in my class at UWM, feel free to enjoy the site!
This is a one-credit class which meets once a week for 15 weeks.
There will be two midterm tests (the 5th and 10th meetings) and a final exam (the 15th meeting),
thus there are 12 weekly sessions devoted to a survey and discussion of the material, organized
in the 12 sections with their links below.
