Latest happenings in the GWU English Department

February 4th, 2009

Dear English Major,

The first workshop in literary studies for junior English majors hoping to enter the Honors Program in the Fall is this Monday, February 9, at 3 PM, in Rome Hall 663.

Thanks to those who have contacted Marshall Alcorn or me and expressed interest. Join us, along with Professors Jonathan Hsy and Gayle Wald on Monday to talk about “Futures of the Field.” The professors present will talk about their own work and their own practices as scholars.

The workshop will run about one hour. You do not need to be registered for the seminar in order to attend. If you are hoping to enter the Honors Program in the Fall, you are expected to attend if at all possible.

Feel free to contact us with any questions.
Robert McRuer
