Gustavus Classics Department

Gustavus Classics Department This is a page for students, faculty, and alumni of the Greek, Latin, and Classical Studies department at Gustavus Adolphus College.

It's a space to celebrate our community and share information about the department. Classics is the study of the ancient world in all its facets. Classics offers a liberal arts education in a microcosm; it is a well-rounded and well-respected major. The Classics Department is a very active presence at Gustavus. This page will allow all who are interested to be informed about events hosted by department, who the professors and students are, and what alumni have been up to.
