Classical Studies
The cultures of the ancient Mediterranean world are the foundation for much of the literature, art, language, medicine, and law in the modern world. Classical Studies at Loyola University New Orleans explores the cultures of ancient Greece, Rome, and the ancient Near East through interdisciplinary approaches like literary and cultural studies, art history, and language study. This method of studying culture through many lenses provides students with a broad background in the classical past and also sharpens their critical thinking and analytical skills.

Brianna Daniel-Harkins Wins Bronze Medal in the 2017 College Greek Exam
Brianna Daniel-Harkins won the Bronze Medal in the 2017 College Greek Exam, the nationally standardized exam for assessing students in their first year of college-level Greek.
"I love the Greek language because it challenges me and does not forgive me--it forces me to forgive myself and allow myself to make mistakes while I translate. Translating is like a puzzle or a math problem to me and teaches me self discipline and critical thinking skills each and every day," says Daniel-Harkins, pictured wearing her prestigious medal.
