She is affiliated faculty with Women’s Studies and has taught an interdisciplinary course in literary theory. She regularly teaches Classical Civilization courses, elementary Greek, upper-division undergraduate courses in Greek and Latin, and Latin and Greek poetry on the graduate level. She has recently taught graduate seminars in Theocritus, Ancient Literary Criticism, the Ancient Novel, Propertius, Menander, and Ovid’s Metamorphoses.
