Professors represent a wide spectrum of expertise and talent.
The English fa-culty includes specialists in 16th, 17th and 18th Century literature, Shakespeare, linguistics, creative writing, rhetoric and composition theory, British Romantic and Victorian literature and American literature. In addition to the wealth of books read in class, the College's library houses an extensive collection of American, British and international literature. For majors wishing to sharpen their writing skills, a writing center allows upperclassmen to tutor freshman composition students in sentence structure, exposition and style. The writing center is available to all students seeking to improve the quality and mechanics of their papers. Not only can students read good books, but they can visit places which have captured the imaginations of writers and served as settings for great fiction and poetry.
