[quote=Anonymous]I took Latin in high school and enjoyed it, so I continued with it through my years at Harvard. Looking back, every kid I encountered in higher level Latin courses (except for me) was from what DCUM would consider an “elite” family. There was no expectation that among them that they would need to support themselves financially, and the attitude toward school and the point of learning was entirely different. They weren’t all bookworm types bound for academic careers. A few seemed to actually relish the exclusivity and “uselessness” of the concentration. A wholly different mindset from the people I knew embarking on careers meant to ensure $$$, to be sure. [/quote]
