English Department
Welcome!
The English Department exists to provide students with the instruction and the opportunity necessary to develop a critical understanding of how English has been used, how it can be used, and the logic of how it works.
Emphasis on reading, writing, analysis, interpretation, and teaching - whether of literature, rhetoric, or linguistic structure - serves the goal of helping students examine historical, cultural, political, ethical, and aesthetic facets of the language in meaningful and productive ways.
