As an adult Classics major, this is by far the most fun I've had in years. Everyone in the department has been tremendously accessible, even for the most naive questions. The professors genuinely want you to be successful and I have seen them go far beyond the "extra mile" for students that were having problems.

The only downside is the fact that Penn is in West Philadelphia so the western edge of campus is about as far west as you'd want to venture, particularly if you're a non-city type person.

The HUGE upside is that if you head east from campus you're in waht's probably the most accessible, walkable big city this side of Paris. The food is great, there's tons of theatre and concert activity. Da Iggles are winning, what more could you want?!
