Congratulations to Prof. Stephen Scully on Achieving Full Professorship!

The Department of Classical Studies warmly congratulates our newest full professor, Steve Scully.  Since joining the Department as an Assistant Professor in 1982, his abiding passion for Greek and Roman poetry, rhetoric, and prose styles, and his delight for Homer and Hesiod, have enriched the lives of his students and the study of Classics at BU and at large. Prof. Scully has served as Chair since 2015 and is the recipient of a Distinguished Teaching Award from Boston University’s College of Arts & Sciences (2002). He holds a PhD in Classics from Brown University (1978), is a prolific author and translator, and the manager of a tree farm linked to his remote cabin in Vermont.
