It's just a way of making the Lingua Latina books quicker and more effective since you won't have to memorize the declensions and conjugations while reading. The books themselves are well regarded and will certainly teach you Latin, so I don't see why the method wouldn't work. But I doubt they would work for an autodidact if you only use the two main readers, so you should pick up some of the supplementary books. Here's a link to the series:

From what I can tell there are volumes for French, German, and Spanish. The French is the best (perhaps the only one?) of its kind. I've heard good things about the German volume, but there is also a similar book available titled German Quickly by April Wilson. I don't know anything about Spanish so I can't speak for that one.

Hansen and Quinn is the definitive Attic Greek textbook: Moreland and Fleisher for Latin.

If you're very serious about learning either Latin or Attic Greek, I'd recommend attending a summer course at the Latin & Greek Institute in Midtown, Manhattan. They are intensive and boot camp style 10 week and 12 credit courses. There are many scholarships offered.

What do these terms mean and what's the history behind them. From what I understand college students have to choose a Major and Minor. Do they then get Bachelor degrees in both areas? Also what does to be on a language track or on a whatever track mean? Track to become a tenured professor?

>history behind them
idk
>what do these terms mean
Classics major: this means that I'm a student within the department of classics at my university. the department of classics focuses on studying the Mediterranean basin in antiquity. Classes in art history, philosophy, poetry, oratory, archaeology, law, theology etc. are offered. Now, within the department for undergraduate majors there are a number of possible degree tracks to follow in order to receive a degree. Some of these tracks are interdisciplinary. Therefore, many students choose to double major with another department or even minor depending on what their interests are. Some students are phil. and classics double majors, some art history and classics, some anthro. and classics etc. I am pursuing the language track. This means that I have to fulfill requirements within Latin and Greek reading courses. Now, I can choose which kinds of courses that I'd like to take (i.e. I don't have to read Lucretius or Aristotle or any genre if I'd prefer not to and just focus on poetry if I'd like). Then again, I am also permitted to have very broad interests and get a taste of many disciplines.

>So, no, it's not a track to become a professor, but it is the most common track for those intending to pursue graduate degrees in classics.

>And students don't have to choose a minor if the don't wish to. If you have a minor, it just says that you were a major in x and a minor in y on your diploma (the same goes for double majors).
