I know we studied it in HS but for the life of me, I can’t remember one thing about it.

I must have just daydreamed those classes away. Right up there with “Omnia Gallia in tres...blah...blah...blah”

I should have gone to Brooklyn Tech!

One of the characters in Beowulf is named Grendel. When I was a student there was a professor who had a dog named Grendel (about half the size of a chihuahua) which liked to run up and down the hall.

I read part of Caesar's Gallic War in high school. Latin. Gallia est omnis divisa in partes tres and all that. Lots of indirect discourse and for some reason he wouldn't let the Helvetii move to a more attractive piece of Gaul.
