Overview

The idea of liberal study had its beginning and initial elaboration in the ancient Greek and Roman worlds. As that idea has expanded in theory and practice over history, the study of classics has remained one of its components, and students of classics have embraced liberal education’s wider aims: to provide the perspective and intellectual skills which enable a person to learn deeply and widely, to think clearly and productively, and to communicate effectively. Its skills include analysis, synthesis, critique, and creativity.

Key facts

The Classics degree at Grinnell College aims at appreciation of the cultural expressions and aspirations of humankind, as well as scientific knowledge. Liberal education is therefore an ideal complement to study of a particular field and preparation for a career.
