Welcome to
the Department of English!
|
 |
The discipline known as "English" embraces a wide
range of interests: from literature written in the
English language in the British Isles and America to
the creation of literature to the formal study of
language, composition, and rhetoric. The Department
of English welcomes students who have interests in
all of these areas and offers preparation for
graduate study and professional employment in a
variety of areas where the close examination of
written texts is important. Students who major in
English may find employment not only as professors,
scholars, literary critics, and teachers, but as
public relations representatives, lawyers,
politicians, bankers, technical writers, poets,
novelists, journalists---the possibilities are
virtually endless.
The Department of English is located in 250 Bancroft
(phone 803/323-2171; fax 803/323-4837). The office
is generally open from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays
through Fridays. The department chair is Dr.
Gloria
Jones,
and the administrative assistant is
Ms.
Cheryl Hingle.
