Each year ASCSA organizes a series of scholarly lectures held in Cotsen Hall on its Kolonaki campus.  These lectures are free-of-charge, open to the public, and regularly attract audiences in the hundreds.  As such they provide an important service to the academic and lay community in Greece, as well as serving the educational interests of North American students and faculty living in Athens. This year for the first time we offer all members and alumni of ASCSA the opportunity to view lectures from their offices in the United States and elsewhere.  We hope that you will find this service useful both for you and your students. The lectures provided here are presented with permission of the speakers. Those sponsored by the Gennadius Library were funded through a generous gift from Lloyd Cotsen, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the library.  All lectures were taped and digitized by Nikos Manias of ASCSA. There will be more added here in January 2009.
