The Augustan Society, Inc., bills itself as an "association of scholars". The Society also emphasizes an interdisciplinary approach to the field. Indeed, our ability to span conventional topic boundaries is one of the Society's great strengths. As such, there are many activities which do not fall neatly into one of the topical departments. For this reason, and because they don't need discipline-specific oversight, it is appropriate to create these projects as [[Study Groups ]] under administration separate from the topical departments.
The [[Coordinators|Coordinator]] of each Study Group is appointed by and serves at the pleasure of the [[Dean of Studies]], who also creates, activates, and deactivates the Study Groups.
'''Proposal: The Society should adopt a policy limiting [[Coordinators]] of [[Study Groups]] to being in charge of only one such group at a time. If two groups are related—such as Anthropology and Archaeology—then the groups could be merged under a single Coordinator. Membership in additional Study Groups would not be constrained.'''

'''Proposal: The Society should work to identify the individuals and locations (and to the extent possible, the dates) of the prints in the Society's photo collection.'''
