Faculty
The classical studies department offers a remarkably broad curriculum in Greek and Latin language, literature in translation, ancient art, and ancient history. Other faculty at Hollins enrich our curriculum with courses in ancient philosophy, religion, and history. All classics courses taught in English are cross-listed with other departments (art, English, gender and women's studies, history, and theatre) and count toward the fulfillment of requirements of other majors.

His keen interest in drama has led to acting roles in the Forum Romanum, a Latin news program, and in Hollins’ production of The Menaechmi. He has published in leading journals of classical philology and makes a mean green salsa. |
