The Department of Classics held The Annual Lafayette Sabine Foster Prize in Ancient Greek, and the President Francis Wayland Prize Exams in Latin and Ancient Greek in April. It is with great pleasure that we announce the winners of this year's prize exams, as well as those who have been awarded honors thesis and service prizes (The James Aldrich Pirce Prize, The Minnie Helen Hicks Prize, The Lucius Lyon Thesis Prize and The Workman-Driscoll Premium, respectively). Congratulations to the Spring 2023 winners! 

This year, Classics @ Brown held our fifth annual Button Badge Competition!  We asked undergraduate students to create a design that they felt represented Classics at Brown University.  Each year, the chosen image will be printed on button badges as a fun way to show appreciation for the department and identify their fellow classmates. Wangdrak Dorji (class of 2024) created this year’s winning design. Wangdrak received a $250 gift card to the Brown University Bookstore. 

Below is the design inspiration Wangdrak submitted with his image:
