Welcome to the undergraduate section of the Department of Greek and Latin! Our majors spend their days exploring ancient literature, history, art, and archaeology. Many of them pursue a summer or a semester--or even more time than that--abroad. They often double major in other disciplines (Philosophy and History are especially popular); they complete minors in other fields across the university. We count amongst our undergraduates many members of the Honors Program, leaders in campus activities, athletes, and musicians. They share a collective excitement about studying the ancient world and about the exciting future that it opens up for them!
