In place of one of these courses, students may choose one course in a foreign literature, read in the original language. Majors in English and a Foreign Literature must elect a coherent course of 4 literature courses read in the foreign language, which must be approved by both the English and foreign language departments. Students declaring English Autumn 1999 and thereafter take 2 electives. Courses used to fulfill this requirement should be taught in a seminar format and require a substantial amount of critical writing. Under English Department policy, students are advised to take the seminar before their senior year.
Class size is limited.
Seniors do not have priority over all others. All majors are expected to acquire basic linguistic skills necessary for an appreciation of literature in a foreign language. SAT scores are not accepted by the English Department for the 4th quarter requirement. Indicate below relevant courses already taken and those that you are considering to satisfy this requirement. This list can only be tentative at this point.
