Elizabeth Allen '14

Elizabeth Allen is a rising senior, double majoring in Biology and Classical Studies (Classical Archaeology and Ancient History track). While she did not come to Brandeis expecting to major in Classics, she was soon hooked after taking a mythology course freshman year. As a pre-med, she enjoys connecting her interest in medicine with her Classical Studies major; for the 2013-2014 year, she is a Eunice M. Lebowitz Cohen fellow and will be researching medical instruments in the CLARC collection. She is happy to answer questions, whether about the Classical Studies major, combining Classical Studies and science, choosing classes, or anything else!

Benjamin Federlin '14  

Ben Federlin is a rising senior majoring in Classical Studies (Archaeology and Ancient History Track) and History with minors in Linguistics and Medieval and Renaissance studies. He is an intern in the Eunice M. Cohen Classical Artifact Research Center where he recently finished working on an exhibit on Roman glass which is now on display in the library. Outside of Classics he is very active in Brandeis' Shakespeare group Hold Thy Peace and the humor publication Gravity Magazine. He would be happy to answer any questions one might have about Classical Studies or really anything else.

Brittany Joyce '15

Brittany Joyce is a rising junior majoring in Classical Studies (Latin Literature Track) with minors in Italian Studies and Teacher Education. She is an upcoming intern in the Eunice M. Cohen Classical Artifact Research Center, and is very excited to start working with the artifacts. She spent summer 2013 studying in Sicily, and would love to return to Italy again sometime soon. Outside of Classics, she is an editor at The Justice newspaper, and works at the library's Information and Borrowing Desk, where she can tell you that ancient literature is located down on Goldfarb 2. She began learning Latin in high school, and settled on Classics when she realized she could study both history and literature, because why pick just one. Please feel free to ask her about research, study abroad, or really anything else!

Jennifer Scontras '15

Cohen Classical Artifact Research Center.  Additionally, Jenny is an active member of BEMCo and the a cappella group Rather Be Giraffes.  She would be thrilled to answer any and all questions or to just chat with anyone interested in Classics!
