Study of the Classical languages helps create a sense of the continuity in Western history, thought and language. A grounding in Latin is extremely beneficial: it enriches verbal resources, teaches careful reading, clarity of thought and accuracy of expression, provides insight into the grammar and vocabulary of English and facilitates the study of all modern languages. Elementary courses emphasizing vocabulary, syntax and translation skills, are designed to encourage students to continue beyond the second year into appreciative reading of major authors and comprehension of the legacy of the Roman World at the third and fourth year levels. There are also elective courses, after Latin 3, which prepare for the Advanced Placement Examination.
