“It’s such a refreshing and revitalizing experience to come in direct contact with the words that someone 2,800 years ago wrote.”

Dr Conlon, Dean of Graduate Studies and Director of the Greek Program, speaks of the transformation that occurs when confronting Ancient Greek writers directly. Through sustained and careful study, the ancients cease to be distant figures and become present voices, even friends.

It is this conviction that shapes our pedagogy and guides our mission at Ralston to give students the tools to encounter those great minds – in philosophy, literature, theology, and science – who continue to shape our lives.
