Grant Bruner, a senior in classics, took the first prize in both Greek and Latin at the New York Classical club undergraduate Greek and Latin examinations. Laurie Drayton, a freshman with classics interests, took the second prize in both. 

The examinations consisted of one prose and one poetry passage appropriate for undergraduates. Cicero and Virgil are typical authors for the Latin exam. The Greek exam often focus on tragedy and Attic prose. 

Congratulations to Grant and Laurie!
