Justin Hudak Justin Hudak is a senior Classics major enrolled in the Program for the simultaneous award of the Bachelor's and Master's Degrees. Born into an aetas Ovidiana and emerging from an aestas of the same sort, he looks forward to combining his ancient and modern literary interests through a senior thesis on Joyce's Ovid. While not reading aloud in the woods or silently in the Classics Library, he enjoys a wide range of other activities: assisting the Heliconian Muses as an editor of Yale's Undergraduate Journal of Classics; playing trombone in the Yale Concert Band; heeding the advice of Horace's city mouse (carpe viam) by seizing the streets of New Haven with other Yale Road Runners; and tending his vegetable garden in the countryside. He hopes to spend the rest of his life studying and teaching the Classics.

David Lindsey is a Classical Civilizations and Anthropology double-major. A morbid pessimist, David's academic interests clearly indicate that he is more concerned with life that has past than the one in front of him. When he isn't pondering cultural tropes and the systems that perpetuate them, he spends his time affecting impressionable young minds as a Senior Museum Fellow at the Peabody Museum and planning events for the Afro-American Cultural Center. Perhaps there is hope for David when he graduates and starts living, until then he will continue to find refuge in the Classics.

Caroline Mann is a junior Classics (Latin and Greek) major. She arrived at Yale with every intention of heeding her parents’ wishes and majoring in a science, but after taking the Roman history surveys freshman year, the siren call of the Classics proved too appealing to ignore. Ever since she has enjoyed spending altogether too much time holed up in Phelps Hall, reading about Romans and Greeks. She has found the department to be very supportive and is particularly grateful for the Berkeley, Biddle, and Woolsey grant which allowed her to enroll in the Berkeley Latin Workshop in the summer of 2010. After Yale she hopes to enroll in a graduate program in Classics, possibly to focus on Roman history. Her non-Classics-related pursuits include working at Bass Library, playing the Celtic harp, and having tea parties with friends.
