This is due in large part to the tireless efforts of the museum\u2019s namesake, Francis W. Kelsey, who believed that actual artifacts from antiquity would better help his students to understand the ancient world. A required visit for many students taking Classical Civilization courses, the Kelsey has become a memorable part of the U-M experience for generations of Wolverines looking to understand the ancient past.
