The major in Greek provides training in ancient Greek from the ground up, enabling students to encounter texts such as Homer's Odyssey, Sophocles' Antigone, and the dialogues of Plato in their original form.  Students majoring in Greek contextualize these readings by taking classes in Classical Civilizations, where they explore many different aspects of Greek culture and read a broad array of ancient texts in translation.
