Overview

These goals include:

To develop a thorough understanding of the ancient Mediterranean cultures as the basis for the artistic, scientific, social, and political traditions of Western society

To increase their level of preparation for further academic and professional training (particularly in the medical and legal professions)

By strengthening their ability to comprehend and use language more effectively and productively

By introducing them to the people, events, and ideas from antiquity that have a direct bearing on our lives today

By emphasizing the interrelated nature of human experiences and knowledge.

To achieve these goals we are committed to providing a learning environment for students that will allow them to gain an understanding of the ancient world in the most efficient, supportive, and creative ways possible.

Philosophically, we have designed our Ancient Mediterranean Studies program at Rhodes College with the following convictions in mind.

The study of the ancient Mediterranean should extend beyond the traditional boundaries of the "Classics" discipline and assume a more natural, supportive role as an interdisciplinary program with ties to all areas of academia that have been influenced by the cultural accomplishments of the ancient Mediterranean cultures.

The program reaches as many students as possible by presenting information and questions about the ancient world in a variety of contexts and courses that appeal to a broad range of academic and professional interests.

Students should have the opportunity to acquire the ancient Greek and Latin languages in an enriched, contextualized environment that reflects the theoretical and pedagogical advances from the field of second language acquisition and keeps pace with developments in modern language instruction.
