Princeton Oxford Exchange

Director John G. Gager, Religion Department

The Princeton-Oxford Exchange in the ancient world began in 2001 as part of a larger initiative of the two universities to mutually enhance programs of the two institutions. A steering committee composed of faculty of the two universities has as it principal role the selection of a topic for parallel seminars usually held in the autumn of each year. The Princeton members of the committee are the members of the Program in the Ancient World committee, one of whom serves as director of the Princeton side of the initiative. The two seminars meet for three days in January of each year alternating between the two universities, at which time the students deliver papers and lead discussion on the chosen topic.
