Classics is the study of ancient Greece and Rome—their languages, cultures, history, literatures, and more. From Greek Mythology to the Roman Empire, these are fascinating topics that people return to again and again throughout their lives. And since Greek and Roman culture are the foundation of nearly every liberal arts discipline, a Classics minor complements any major and deepens a student’s understanding of any field he or she pursues. Classics minors have pursued teaching, graduate and medical school, law school, public policy, and even the priesthood. And studying Latin or Greek is especially helpful for graduate exams like the LSAT, GRE, and MCAT.
