ALT The Class in Classics report published in March by the Network for Working-Class Classicists, the first of its kind undertaken in the discipline, was a clear and forceful call to arms, and can have left nobody in any doubt that class is not being taken seriously in many of our universities. The problems that the report illustrates make for sobering reading, and yet the NWCC have provided the field with actionable solutions that will improve Classics for everyone in the community. With the creation of this award, we are delighted to be able to offer public recognition for both the report and the determined group of academics who organised, researched, collated and wrote up the results. It is clear that those with a desire to improve the conditions of class in Classics now have objective data to support the movement. We would like to take this opportunity to congratulate them on making such an impact with this report, and hope that it is a catalyst for meaningful change.
