But its so true. I took Latin, and it helped me tremendously in my classes in college when I studied to be a teacher. Another bonus of Latin is that by studying it and the Romans, it helps ground the student in Western culter and Western values, rather than the usual PC pablum that is passed off as education.

That's probably why Latin courses are being discontinued in so many high schools and colleges.
