What you'll study

Coursework builds skills in critical analysis, close reading, and varied forms of writing. The Literary Studies track covers American and British literature, non-Western writings, creative writing, and literary criticism to explore expression, ideas, and values. The Writing track provides experiential study of expository, creative, technical, and scientific writing. Faculty-run courses include off-campus performances, historic-site visits, guest authors and musicians, and encourage study abroad; students may also serve as writing tutors in the college’s Student Success Center.
