These are web-pages helpful to Latin students (and others) for research projects. Those who are in more advanced (Roman literature-oriented) classes may find the Vergil and Ad Fontes Academy links helpful.

As of 1/31/00, all of Mrs. Carroll's students MUST read Chapel Hill's policies and instructions on plagiarism BEFORE submitting any written research. You can reach these pages easily the following link, http://www.quia.com/pages/plagiarism.html. It's the second link down, which you can click on below
