Clubs and Events

The Classical Society

The purpose of this organization is to hold regular meetings in order to discuss classical literature, archaeology, ancient history, and to increase appreciation of the classics.  Students must declare a minor or major in the Classics in order to vote. Any student regardless of affiliation may attend meetings, take part in events, but may not have the privilege of voting or holding office.

What do Classics Majors do with their degree?

Our former Classics Majors have been regularly welcomed into graduate programs, schools of law, and by the business community throughout the United States. Their solid base of knowledge and analytic skills are viewed favorably by admissions boards and prospective employers as a guarantee of adaptability and self-discipline.

For more information on career opportunities see "What can I do with this degree?".

"My classical education taught me important research, language, critical thinking, and writing skills that I will use every day throughout my career as an attorney.  More importantly, the Classics have given me a keen appreciation of human nature-- virtue, vice, piety, honor, justice, love, hate, war, and peace."
