Last night was the Umbra Pizza Workshop...but with a twist. As part of Professor Robert Proctor's "Intensive Italian Through Culture" program, students got a brief history of pizza from staff member Zach Nowak, made pizzas with the direction of headpizzaiolo Felice, and ate their handiwork while chit-chatting in one of Perugia's most quaint pizzerias, but all in Italian. Proctor's innovative program--intensive Italian taught not only in the classroom (grammar, pronunciation) but also outside the classroom, in museums and pizzerias--seeks to immerse the student in both the Italian language and the Italian culture. Round Two of "Workshop della Pizza" is tonight at 7:15pm (or is it 20:15?): meet at the Fontana Maggiore in the main square.
