Fun Things to Do
The Department of English and Philosophy hosts many activities throughout the year for its majors, minors, and graduate students. For undergraduates, these include the fall meet and greet, the winter holiday bowling party, and the graduation party. WRIT, the English undergraduate club, sponsors other events as well — many involving pizza! Graduate students should take the opportunity to participate in the activities of EGSA, the English Graduate Student Association.
The work-in-progress lecture series by faculty and presentations given by visiting lecturers enhance studies in the classroom and are of interest to all. Keep an eye on the Department webpage for dates and times. Like us on Facebook to get instant updates as they become available.
In addition, we'd like to draw your attention to the great resources on campus and around the region. Let us know if there's one you'd like us to add.
