Department of Classics

Located on the historic Lawn, the Department has been training students since Mr. Jefferson founded the University in 1819. We have a distinguished faculty, a strong and varied group of graduate students and undergraduate majors, and excellent facilities for the study of the ancient world. "To read the Latin and Greek authors in their original is a subline luxury...I thank on my knees him who directed my early education for having in my possession this rich source of delight." Thomas Jefferson
