National Greek Exam
The National Greek Examination in 2024 enrolled 1468 students from 144 high schools, colleges, and universities in the US and around the world. Of these students, 51% earned purple, blue, red, or green ribbons. The battery of six examinations consisted of four Attic Greek exams (Introduction, Beginning, Intermediate, Prose) and two Homeric Greek exams (Odyssey and Iliad).
In 2025, high-school seniors who earn purple or blue ribbons in the Attic Prose exam will be eligible to apply for one scholarship in the amount of $2,000, renewable for four years.
New Testament Manuscript Collection Tour
The University of Michigan Library holds an extensive collection of Greek manuscripts consisting of 110 codices (bound manuscripts) and fragments that range from the fourth to the nineteenth centuries CE. It is the largest such collection in the Western Hemisphere. As explained in the section, The Provenance of the Collection, most of these manuscripts were purchased through the efforts of Professor Francis Willey Kelsey in the second decade of the previous century.
