The Women's Classical Caucus (WCC) was founded in 1972 and incorporated in 1992. Our goals are both scholarly and professional. We seek to incorporate feminist and gender-informed perspectives in the study and teaching of all aspects of ancient Mediterranean cultures, particularly the study of women in classical antiquity. We also strive to advance the goals of equity and diversity within the profession of Classics, to foster supportive professional relationships among classicists concerned with questions of gender, and to forge links with feminist scholars in other disciplines.

The Lambda Classical Caucus (LCC) is a coalition of queer Classicists--including, but not limited to, lesbians, bisexuals, gay men, and transgender people--and their friends and supporters. It was founded in 1989 as the Lesbian and Gay Classical Caucus. The purpose of the Caucus is twofold: scholarly and political. Our scholarly purpose is to promote research that reflects the personal and intellectual interests of queer scholars, and provide a bridge between Classics and the interdisciplinary fields of LGBT/Queer Studies, the history of sexuality, cultural studies, and gender theory.
