Unless otherwise noted, all courses are held in the Larkin Building (LA) of Trinity College.
Please note that, owing to ongoing need to safeguard against the spread of COVID-19, there will be no in-person Orthodox studies classes at Trinity College in Fall 2020 or Winter/Spring 2021. The days and times given below reflect when some live videoconference class activities may be scheduled. Every course will vary in terms of asynchronous (materials and activities which can be accessed and completed at any time) or synchronous (live scheduled activities) delivery.
