Department of English and Foreign Languages

The Department of English and Foreign Languages offers course work that leads to a Bachelor of Arts degree in English, English Education, Interdisciplinary Studies Major, Spanish, Spanish Education, French, and French Education. Students may also choose to minor in English. The Department houses Philosophy and Religion and humanities studies that have traditionally constituted the centerpiece of a liberal education.

Advising for Majors

The six majors in the fields of English, French and Spanish provide academic advising typically by the Department Head or the Program Coordinator.  Advising for the Senior Investigative Paper is by an assigned faculty member in the department.  Because the Liberal Arts Major (interdisciplinary studies) requires each student to develop for approval an individualized Course of Study, a Liberal Arts Major Adviser works with these students individually, 

The department offers six majors, three minors and two non-degree curricula.
