Please join us Tuesday, November 12th for our third New Approaches Classics lecture with Professor Victoria Wohl. We hope to see you there!
Congratulations to Postdoctoral Fellow Tori Lee who has won this year's Women’s Classical Caucus' Leadership Award! Read more here: bu.edu/classics/2024/…
As is departmental tradition, students came together last fall to celebrate Halloween for our annual Gorefest. Each year students dress up & perform spoOoky passages of Greek & Roman lit over pizza & lots of laughs. Visit the link in our bio to contribute or share this post!
Across the academic spectrum, students & teachers engage in heated debates around who was the best ancient classical civilization: Greece or Rome? By giving to the Classics Department, conversations like these may continue to capture the attention of undergrads for years to come
Who can deny these furry friends on Giving Day? After all, they are our biggest supporters :) Visit the link in our bio to give or share this post to spread the word about Classics!
In coordination with BU Phillhellenes, we have a giving page for our Summer Study in Greece to help fund scholarships & make the study accessible to all. Summer study includes classes, trips to places like Delphim & Nafplio, & more. To donate, visit the link in our bio.

In departmental tradition, undergraduate students have organized performances at the end of every semester around their work in ancient language classes. To help keep this tradition up, consider visiting the link in our bio to donate or share.
Happy Giving Day! Today we celebrate the Classics department in a BU-wide day of support. Stay tuned today to hear what our department has been up to & consider donating or sharing at the link in our bio.

Last week, the Classics community showed how invigorating our presence is on campus, and for that, we extend a massive THANK YOU to everyone involved. We are extremely proud of the work in our department and look forward to showing our immense gratitude towards our supporters.
Continuing our collaboration with the Undergraduate Classics Association here is our next Hermes' Hero, Sophia!
