Comment:
Beware of courses called some variation of "Farce & Friends." I took this freshman writing seminar thinking we would be talking about modern comedy... boy was I wrong. All we readtalked aboutwrote aboutbreathed was greek comedic tragedies. In regard to the class, it was definitely more tragic than comedic...

Comment:
Professor Crotty is one of the kindest and most caring professors at W&L. He has patiently helped me with Greek from the time I barely knew the alphabet up to reading the Iliad in the original language. He takes a personal interest in students and their goals, which is important to me. He is very fair, and if you work hard, your grade will show it.

Absolutely brilliant man; the workload can be a bit excessive at times, but it's worth it. Classics is his life; you will learn Latin.

Don't take advanced latin unless you are REALLY good at translating. I took it freshman year and was overwhelmed. He is, however, an unbelievably intelligent man and if you can take one of his classes I highly recommend. Makes ancient ideas seem relevant to today's world.

I'm probably just rating him hot because I have a thing for intelligence, and he IS smart, but he's also very friendly, respectful (and professional).

Very enthusiastic. *Very fair* in tests and quizzes. Your grade depends on how much you study; no luck involved. Lots of work, but you will do fine as long as you do what he asks.

Already having a strong background in latin would make the class very easy, but he does pay attention to detail and "non-clunky" english so you have to be on point.

Comment:
Was placed into class as a freshman, and having a limited Latin background found that I was in over my head. If you're good at it, though, I really reccommend him. He's brilliant, no doubt about it, and knows everything there is to know about classics.

Really dynamic and energetic. The guy is hands-down the smartest and most over-qualified professor at the school. (Seriously, who teaches undergrads Latin when you've got a Harvard J.D.?)
