Classics Crocodile

Anon who wants to know about American colleges! There are a TON of good programs out there. Wash U in St Louis, Boston University, Harvard, Yale, U of Cinncinnati in Ohio, College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, Massachusetts, Eastern Kentucky University, Miami U of Ohio... These are ones i or my friends are attending, or NJCL convention has been at recently... i can't vouch for all the programs particularly, but it's a place to start. Good luck! Hit me up for more info any time!

this is fucking awesome. like really man this is one bitchin blog. im a fanatic for roman antiquity and a latin nerd to the core. applying to college soon. im assuming you're a classics major? where do you go, and what colleges/universities have the best classics programs

I love you and your blog. Nothing hurts.On the otherhand, I just finished my first year of Latin several weeks ago and we used the Oxford Latin Course textbook and I was wondering if you know about the Cambridge one?

So the Classics Croc image about the Latin lolcat ads -- http://fuckyeahclassicscrocodile.tumblr.com/post/3860971978 -- that's about me! I and one other grad student in my department used them to advertise our summer Latin courses. Our enrollment maxed out within a week.Also: my Latin students this semester, who've spent the semester reading Catullus and Caesar, had their final exam last week. One of the bonus questions was "What does this image mean? Why is it funny?" keyed to:http://fuckyeahclassicscrocodile.tumblr.com/post/3949514047A couple of my top responses: "It's funny because crocodiles don't usually read Catullus." And "Catullus 5 is about kissing, and Catullus 16 is about oral sex. You have to open your mouth wider for one than for the other, and the alligator's mouth is open wide. Thanks to you, instructor, I'll never be able to think about alligators the same again."
