The Major in Classics focuses on mastering the classical languages and thereby engaging ancient literary works directly. The close attention given to Greek and Latin texts develops in the Classics major an ability to think critically, examine and weigh words carefully, and communicate effectively. Our graduates often pursue advanced degrees in Classics, Ancient History or Archaeology, some go on to related fields in the liberal arts, or attend professional schools in law or medicine.

The Meelia Center is very excited to extend a special invitation to the 15th annual Access Academy Spring Showcase. The Showcase is an event held each semester where student learning is honored and celebrated as the finale of Access Academy.
Access Academy is an after-school program held at Saint A’s where students from Manchester’s four high schools can participate in extended learning opportunities in coursework that is driven and taught by college student leaders supported by faculty partnerships. This semester, Access Academy hosted more than 130 unique high school students in 16 classes ranging from all fields of study including STEM, humanities, college and career pathways, and physical education with a team of more than 70 college student leaders in positions of instructors, mentors, and CELs.
If you are able to attend the showcase on Monday May 5th, you can expect to see high school student projects that include posters, app development testing, published writings, student speakers, class presentations, a mural, and a choreographed dance video.
