Title: Educators Describe Renewal of Latin Instruction in City Schools
Body: From http://gothamschools.org/2012/05/07/educators-describe-renewal-of-latin-instruction-in-city-schools Educators describe renewal of Latin instruction in city schools by Rose D'souza May 7, 2012 City students at selective public and elite private schools have long had the option to study Latin. Now several schools with less affluent students are breathing new life into the long-dead language by requiring all students to study it. At a panel discussion on Friday organized by the New York Classical Club, educators from across the city spoke optimistically about the revival of Latin at their public schools. Educators on the panel said one attraction of Latin instruction is the idea that it could help fuel academic achievement in other subjects. “I chose it because of the timelessness of it. When in doubt, go to Latin. You can’t go wrong with it,” said Lester Long, executive director of the South Bronx Classical Charter School, where students start taking Latin in third grade. “We want students to use Latin to understand what they read in English. That’s our big driver.” Read the full article at http://gothamschools.org/2012/05/07/educators-describe-renewal-of-latin-instruction-in-city-schools

Title: Editorial: Majoring in Classics Gives Students an Edge
Body: From http://www.usatodayeducate.com/staging/index.php/campuslife/opinion-majoring-in-the-classics-gives-students-an-edge Opinion: Majoring in the classics gives students an edge By Meghan DeMaria May 7, 2012 People who hear someone is a classics major usually assume that person wants to be a high school Latin teacher or a college professor. While many classics majors choose to earn graduate degrees in classics and become teachers and professors, there are many other fields that undergraduates can enter with a classics degree. But more importantly, there’s a lot to be learned from classics, regardless of your profession.
