Hi Brandon:

This group has been dormant for some time. It's not that we're not interested in
Klein or
Greek mathematics in general; we've just gone off to other topics, e.g. Phaedo,
Aristotle's
Organon, etc., for a bit.

I'm not sure where you're coming from or going to.

You are a philosophy major looking for a graduate school with a strong classics
program?

If that's the case, you can search on Google for some crude pointers. One that I
found is:
http://www.vanderbilt.edu/AnS/history/graham/Classic%20Data.htm

I was a math & computer science grad student with but a keen interest in
philosophy and
no professional training as a philosopher. I picked up on the ancients
relatively late.

My general advice would be to pick what you can afford financially. Then, pick a
program
that has some depth--more than a few professors in the area that interests you
the most.
When I went to grad school in math, I envisioned working with a professor that
was very
prominent, but had, in fact, become burned out. But it was a broad program, and
I was
able to find someone else that was actively recruiting students. That's
important--the
eventual choice of a research supervisor and the availability of backups! (The
same thing
happened later in comp sci.) Finally, pick a grad school that you like--for the
cultural
environment and for the intellectual bent. For example, you might like an east
coast
school but not the Univ of Arizona, even though Tucson has a good philosophy
program.

Why were you searching on Jacob Klein?
