Classical Studies Program
Classical Studies includes the study of Greek and Latin and of ancient history and civilization, extending from the Paleolithic to the fall of the Roman Empire in the West in A.D. 476, the core of liberal arts learning in the west for centuries. The Classical Studies Program incorporates courses drawn from the language, literature, philosophy, history, archaelogy, art, theatre, geography, religious studies and Jewish Studies programs, offering students an opportunity to specialize in the disciplines of antiquity.
