Salvete omnes!

The first few days here have been a whirlwind of ​activities and fun. One of the first things we did was separate into the electoral bases of the Optimares and the Populares  to create authentic propaganda for our officer elections. We have the pleasure of announcing the following people as having been elected by a completely fair and wholly unbiased democratic system:

Praetors: Adil and Campbell
Consuls: Kyla and Shriya
Censors Janika and Nachi
Quastors: Jessica and Joseph L.
Tribunes: Nalin and Sophie

And, of course, your aediles, aka the people writing this blog, Hannah H. and Hannah J.

The next big shoutouts we would like to hand out are for the people who got cast speaking roles in the play. Now do not fret folks, there are many other ways to be involved in the play. So for now a great round of applause for...

Grumio: Ethan
Tranio in acts I and II: Melissa
Tranio in act III: Jessica
Tranio in act IV and V: Eleanor
Philoaches: Charlie
Philemalium: Megan
Scapha: Nachi
Callidamates: Joseph L.
Delphium: Avery
Theoproprides II and III: Max
Theoproprides IV and V: James
Misargyrides: Janika
Simo: Aryn
Phaniscus: Kyla
Pincium: Nalin

We'll update you tomorrow on how classes are going and keep you updated about any other activities we participate in.

Vale, 
Hannah and Hannah
