What advice do you have for students who want to major in English?

Take the classes you want to learn more about and don’t be afraid to challenge yourself with things outside of your comfort zone.

What is your favorite English course and why?

Critical Theories about Literature (76-350) taught by Professor Jon Klancher. I love this class because I think the readings are engaging and thought provoking, and my classmates shared very insightful thoughts about each reading. Moreover, Professor Klancher is extremely well-read and teaches well-constructed lessons.
