Latin: More than Just a Language

More than 50,000 copies of this colorful brochure have been distributed at cost by classical organizations in the past two years. Teachers and parents may order up to 200 copies each from the ACL’s TMRC. The brochure features photos of JCL students in togas, Roman engineering feats and testimonials to the benefits of Latin by Coach Joe Paterno, Teller, and John Donohue. The value of Latin for helping students learn English and other languages is highlighted. Latin students are exposed to a world class literature, and many related studies. They gain a foundation for careers, and access to a cultural heritage shared by citizens of many countries of the world. The price is $.30 each, 25 for $6.25 or 100 for $23.00. Classical organizations and teacher groups may order 500 or more from Virginia Barrett, Barrettcyp@aol.com.  Price varies according the number of brochures printed. The brochure, prepared by Virginia by and Tom Sienkewicz for the ACL, is listed under Promotional Materials of the National Committee for Latin and Greek.
