always ask how many students complete their degree in 4 years (or however many for the program) ask will you be required to take any other gen ed classes, stuff about the classics concentration (how many people in the program, do they like it, are there opportunities to work with professors outside of class, etc)
Hey, I have heard nothing but wonderful things about the education there, and several of my classmates went there. (I almost went, but USF offered a better scholarship.)
You should really ask about the housing, though. They don't have much.
I intend too ask, for sure. But I also know some people who'd rent to me, so if it falls through at the college (which, my university attendee brother says don't dorm) then I'll have second choice. Only thing, if I live on campus, I won't have to buy a car.
The classics concentration looks pretty good. I'm surprised that they require a language throughout the degree - the university I'm going to offers it as a choice, rather than a requirement. I think I like your uni better :(.
I don't know what 'transfer advisers' are, but if you are asking questions about the degree, I'd also find out what the possibilities are for further education in the area you're looking into - do they do honours, masters or phd programs and look at each of the lecturers for their areas of interest. (that is, if you are considering pursuing a higher degree off of classics - there isn't a whole lot you can do in Oz with a specific 'classics' degree, I don't know if it is different in the US).

It's enough that my dad is going, "Why do you want to go to that liberal atheist place anyways?"
