English Major (Curriculum I)
Students wishing to major in English should make that declaration at the beginning of the sophomore year. The English Department office provides forms for this purpose and will let the student choose an advisor or will assign one. Students who wish to pursue teacher certification should choose Curriculum Two, English/Language Arts.
