Greek

As studied in the context of the Classics, Philosophy, and Religious Studies programs at Lewis & Clark, Ancient Greek is the ancient language of the great texts of antiquity from Homer, Aeschylus, Euripides and Thucydides to the New Testament to the works of Byzantine Greek authors. Its temporal range is from the eighth century BCE to the fifteenth century CE. Thus learning Ancient Greek provides students access in the primary language to many of the most treasured texts in human history.

    I love the way sociology and anthropology give me lenses through which to view the world on an expansive, global scale as well as on a local one, while theatre is an active way to get out of my head and be present creatively.

    Getting to study mathematics is like if they made a major about having fun and solving puzzles. It’s so cool to be given an assignment to prove that something must be true.
