English Major, B.A.

The Department of English offers a variety of courses designed to expose the student to a wide range of literary texts and critical approaches. In English classes, students read, analyze, and write about literature from a number of historical periods. The faculty provides the personal attention that enables each student to learn to write well and to think critically, thus ensuring they acquire the skills necessary for success in any profession. We believe that such study enhances the love and appreciation of literature, exercises the imagination, and frees the mind from credulity and conformity.
