The Andrew Fleming West Chair in Classics is an endowed chair for the teaching of classics at Princeton University.

Established by a gift of the Carnegie Corporation of New York in honor of Andrew Fleming West, long-serving Giger Professor of Latin and inaugural Dean of the Princeton University Graduate School, the chair originally functioned as a distinguished visiting professorship, beginning with Sir Denys Page in 1938. Its current holder is Roman historian Harriet I. Flower.
