Who We Are

On July 12th-13th, 1916, at the University of California Berkeley, several western associations coalesced into the Classical Association of the Pacific States.

In 1969, the California Classical Association emerged as a separate body.  It is a non-profit organization with a volunteer Board of Directors elected by Members. 

The CCA serves to promote the teaching and study of Classics and to promote the professional interests of its members. 

What We Do

CCA Member funds support programs to enrich and promote Classical Studies:

  • Two annual conferences (Spring and Fall)
  • Two annual newsletters (Spring and Fall)
  • Laetaberis, the Journal of the California Classical Association
  • Maintaining close relationships with the Junior Classical League, American Classical League, American Philological Association, National Committee for Latin and Greek, and FLANC

Our Grants

The Marian McNamara Scholarship
Marian (1924-2003) taught Latin at both Gunn and Palo Alto High Schools for over thirty years.  She was an active member of many national and local classical associations, serving on the CCA-N Board for many years in a variety of offices.  The purpose of this scholarship is to encourage our top high school graduates to continue their study of classical languages while at university and to consider a career in teaching of the classics.

Richard L. Trapp Grant-In-Aid
Dr. Trapp (1923-1996) was both department chair and professor of classics at San Francisco State University as well as an officer and long-time  Board Member of CCA-N.  He was above all an inspiring and innovative teacher of classics, who encouraged the intellectual and professional growth of his students and colleagues.  Members may apply for a grant from this fund to support professional development activities, including study and travel abroad
