To get a good start in the language, you should also plan on taking Greek 1223 the following semester.

GREEK 1223. ELEMENTARY CLASSICAL GREEK II (Alternate Spring Semesters)


A continuation of Greek 1113.

GREEK 2113. ELEMENTARY CLASSICAL GREEK III (Alternate Fall Semesters)

GREEK 2213. INTERMEDIATE READINGS (Alternate Spring Semesters)


The Apology of Plato is read during this semester.

GREEK 3330. ADVANCED READINGS


You and the professor will decide together what to read. This small class can easily accommodate your personal interests. You should also count on doing research and writing in this course. Be sure to contact the professor during the preceding semester.

To get a good start in the language, you should also plan on taking Latin 1223 the following semester.
