Why I love Classics

Classics has the best authors writing about all the great questions in works of lasting beauty and power. There is always so much more to know: languages, law, linguistics, history, economics, literature, art, archaeology; virtually all fields of human endeavor and inquiry illuminate each other and the ancient world. Studying Classics, one can remain a student forever, eager for new learning, excited about new discoveries, tutored by great minds. And being a student is the highest vocation of the University and one of the best things about being born a human being.
