Congratulations from Ellie Dobson, Director of Admissions for the College of Arts and Law

Ideas, Ideals and Ideologies is one of my favourite [optional] modules from this year. I love learning about how the Romans viewed themselves and their world, and we engage with a wide range of both primary and secondary sources.
