古典人文专业使学生能够将对古代语言的热爱与对希腊，罗马和近东古代的文学，文明和文化的探索相结合。学生以两到四个学期的组合学习希腊语，拉丁语或圣经希伯来语，并且可以从广泛的补充课程中进行选择，包括艺术，建筑，考古，历史，文学，哲学和政治等主题。除了支持他们的语言学习外，这些科目还使我们的专业学生对古代世界有了更全面的了解。
The classical humanities major combines two semesters of language study with elective coursework that explores the literature, civilization, and culture of Greece, Rome, and the Ancient Near East. Students choose from a wide variety of courses, including everything from CLASSICS 150 Ancient Greek and Roman Monsters to CLASSICS 308 Sex and Violence in the Ancient Near East. Students will also find offerings in art, architecture, archaeology, gender studies, history, literature, philosophy, and politics. In addition to enhancing their language study, these subjects enable our majors to develop a more comprehensive understanding of the ancient world.<br><br>Latin and ancient Greek are regularly offered and provide the foundation for modern English vocabulary, giving context and insight into the history of the words we use today. Class sizes are small, making the experience more personal and creating opportunities for meaningful learning outcomes.
