Abstract
This article chronicles the efforts of faculty members at the institutions of the Associated Colleges of the South (ACS) to create "Sunoikisis," a virtual department of Greek and Roman Studies. Because the ACS includes colleges in 12 states ranging from Texas to Virginia, the project relies heavily on the Internet. The long-term goal of the project is to expand the academic opportunities available to undergraduates at small liberal arts colleges for studying the languages, literatures, and material culture of the ancient Greco-Roman world. The article addresses the major phases in the evolution of the initiative: making initial steps to develop a sense of community and identify areas of possible collaboration, conducting workshops to train faculty members in the use of information technology, involving faculty members and students in an excavation and survey in southwestern Turkey, and launching Web-based interinstitutional collaborative courses (ICCs).
