To All Current English Majors: Welcome Back!

ByGWEnglish

On this, the first day of classes, my colleagues in the English Department and I would like to welcome you back to GW and wish you a good semester.

Please subscribe to or bookmark this blog to keep up to date on events and important information about the major. You may also wish to become a fan of the department’s Facebook page.

Finally, let me stress that my door is always open to you. The bowl sitting in the main office (almost) always has candy in it. Please feel free to stop by or to email. This is your department, and I am always interested in hearing what we can do to make it a better place.
