Literature

Literature, also known as English Literature, is a course of study offered through the English Department. It includes one major and one minor. The department is located in Old Main.

Overview

Book readin'. Lots of dead white guys, though Gina Franco might say differently. Some Lit majors find it funny when Creative Writing majors have to take Literary analysis courses. It's comparable to watching a cat getting sprayed with water.
