English BA

English - 30 Credits

The English program prepares students to navigate in a world of texts-teaching ways to analyze the rhetorical and social contexts of the texts they encounter and how to produce texts in response that are theoretically engaged and personally informed. English majors are masters of clear and effective communication, never caught by the world in a farrago they can't engage and articulate, never without a witty or on-point response.
