Latin "Song-Off"

Alumnus Klemens Gowin 2013 got in on a little fun at the faculty dinner held after Commencement 2016. At the request of Latin teacher Stephanie Spaulding, Klemens showed up and surprised Sara Morris, his former Latin teacher, with a heartfelt Latin song-off (oops, send-off!) as he serenaded Sara and played the guitar. (One didn’t have to understand a word of the ancient language of Rome to get the drift of Klemens’ crooning.) Gratias agimus vobis to Ms. Spaulding for a great surprise, to Klemens for making it real, and to Mrs. Morris for leaving Hamden Hall her legacy of love for Latin.
