At their best, scholars of the humanities embody love of learning and wisdom over mere appearance and sophistry. Where institutions of learning tilt toward test-prep and job training, PhD-trained teachers must fight to keep alive a humanistic appreciation of learning for its own sake.

Today on AJR we begin a forum on the experience of academics who have chosen to teach in secondary education. Classicist Jonathan Warner kicks off the forum, "Secondary Scholarship," with his reflection on teaching Latin in a public high school. www.ancientjewreview.com/read/2026/1/...
