Recognized on this page are those OSU personnel — faculty, students, visiting scholars — who contribute to the mission of the Laboratory for Greek Dialectology (LGD) and those distinguished foreign scholars (faculty and students alike) who likewise have participated in and have supported the activities of the LGD. All are important in different ways, and the categories are just a way of helping to keep track of who is who.
