Friends of Modern Greek at Brown

The success of the Program in Modern Greek Studies, despite a lack of permanent funding, has
mobilized volunteers and donors within the Brown family. Following the second year of the
program, a group of Greeks and Philhellenes in Rhode Island organized the “Friends of Modern
Greek Studies at Brown,” an association with the goal of enhancing the accessibility of Greek
cultural programs to members of campus and the local community.

Thanks to the energy and enthusiasm of the group's president, Dr.Venetia Georas, the membership of the “Friends of Modern Greek Studies at Brown” numbers more than sixty, many of whom regularly attend lectures and seminars at Brown.
