About Roman Britain, the pressure of following a legendary teacher, and the importance of giving students in under-resourced schools the opportunity to study Latin.

Starting in the fall of 2022, Michael Garcia will be a Latin teacher at White Station High School in Memphis, Tennessee. Michael earned bachelor’s degrees in anthropology and history from Louisiana State University. He then went to England to pursue postgraduate degrees in archaeology and medieval studies before eventually landing in Memphis, where he has taught in the public school system for the past six years.

Quintilian is supported by a Bridge Initiative Grant from the Committee for the Promotion of Latin and Greek, a division of the Classical Association of the Middle West and South.
