SMS Faculty Profile - Marshall Davies Lloyd

Marshall Davies Lloyd

Marshall is a third generation Latin teacher. Both his parents taught Latin to all-female student bodies---his father as a professor of Classics at Randolph-Macon Woman's College and his mother as Latin teacher and Dean of Studies at Seven Hills School in Lynchburg, Virginia. From the time he was a child, Marshall traveled with his parents to Italy, visiting classical sites and museums. Now he enjoys sharing the Classics with a new generation of young women.

Notable Quotes:

"Where we are is a product of how we got here. By understanding our past, we best prepare for our future. In the age of information, it is proving even more important for students to analyze, synthesize, and draw conclusions from what they read. There is no better place to learn to read critically than in the Classics."
