Exercise your mind with rigor and precision as a Saint Michael's Latin major, then flex your old-school thinking muscle in the modern world, as our students and graduates do each day as scholars, lawyers, librarians, businessmen and teachers. Excursions into classical literature and study travels to Europe help you discover that for excitement and substantial clues to the meaning of life, ancient Rome is not only where it's been, but where it's at. Your early Latin courses give you facility to read - in the original - timeless literature that challenges, expands and pleases your mind and soul. Other courses immerse you in Roman culture and civilization, sometimes through literature in translation. Many of these classes also help fulfill the college's liberal arts requirements.<br>All Latin majors take a full year of Latin, and then must take four additional reading courses. You also have a choice of related courses in translation, whether from the Classics, Humanities, History, Religious Studies or Philosophy departments. One popular course, taught by religious studies scholar Jeffrey Trumbower, is Judaism in the Greco-Roman World. Our students also have read Saint Augustine in Latin with John Kenney, an internationally prominent Augustine scholar. Others have done one-on-one tutorial reading of St. Thomas Aquinas with one of our beloved resident Edmundite priests.
