About the Host University

The Classical Studies Department, located on the 5th floor of Crown Center on the Lake Shore Campus of Loyola University Chicago, is home to a thriving and welcoming intellectual environment, with scholars of legal history, Greek religion and archaeology, women's and gender studies, Greek and Roman poetry, Assyriology, military history, late antique historiography, and drama. As the center of a Jesuit liberal arts education, we offer a major and minor in Classical Civilization and minors in Ancient Greek and Latin. We are also involved in several interdisciplinary programs, such as Catholic Studies, European Studies, Middle Eastern and Islamic World Studies, Sociolegal Studies, and Peace, Justice, and Conflict Studies.
