Greek

Greek is a course of study offered through the Classics Department. It includes one major and one minor. The department is located in GDH.

Overview

Greek is the most superior form of academic snobbery found on the Knox campus. Each year ten or so students take the Elementary or Advanced Greek courses led by academic all-stars such as Steve Fineberg, Jon Chicken, and Nathan Bethell. Knox Greek scholars confine themselves to George Davis Hall where they spend hours discussing genitive absolutes, syntax, dactylic poetry, and Homer.
