Classics - BA - Classical Language & Literature Emphasis

The Classics Language and Literature emphasis focuses on examining the Graeco-Roman world through an exploration of ancient texts in their original languages. As a student in the program, you’ll read a sampling of Greek and Latin poetry, drama, history, philosophy, oratory, etc., with guidance from faculty. If you wish to pursue graduate studies in Classics, you must take the Language and Literature emphasis, but this emphasis also serves well students with interdisciplinary interests who seek a challenging liberal arts major and who enjoy small classes in which they receive significant personal attention.
