Classical Studies / Classics

Unlock the secrets of Western civilization. Benefit not only from small classes, but also from resources such as a slide library containing over 40,000 images (one of the largest in the world), a departmental reading room, and an on-campus museum with artifacts from the classical Mediterranean world. The classics program gives you a broad educational foundation that can lead to a rewarding career in virtually any field.

The classics program has mandatory courses in Greek and Latin, but students in the
classical studies program, or from other programs, may choose some of these language classes as electives.
