Each year at its annual meeting the Association presents ovationes and gratulationes to members who have been selected by the Awards Committee for their significant service to the discipline and the organization. The ovatio or gratulatio is read in Latin by a colleague close to the honoree at the banquet, while copies of the ovatio or gratulatio in Latin and English are distributed to attendees.
The ovatio recognizes long and distinguished service to CAAS and/or to the classics community by those in the CAAS region.
Nominations for 2025 CAAS ovationes and gratulationes are now closed. Please check back later this year for 2026 nominations.
