Isaacson, Richard M. Jenson, Neila C. Seshachari, Douglas M. Spainhower, Joyce B. Williams; Lecturer, Scott Loughton Description: The Department of English provides a wide variety of courses for all students and in addition more specific courses for students seeking majors, composite majors, minors, or areas of concentration. To help students meet general requirements, the department offers a composition program to improve language and writing skills and several literature courses designed to provide vital experiences in the humanities area. The English Department, in short, seeks to assist students in becoming competent, and cultured human beings. Career and Professional Opportunities: Students earning Bachelor of Arts degrees with majors, composite majors, minors, or areas of emphasis in English pursue many careers or professions. Many with teaching certificates obtain teaching jobs in elementary and secondary schools; others go on to graduate work to prepare for college and university teaching. Still others pursue advanced degrees in professional areas such as law, medicine, and business. English majors and minors are often hired by businesses and governmental agencies because of their skills in writing and relating with human beings. Library science and publication careers are also available for students well prepared in English. Career Guidance: The English Department and the College Career Guidance Center will help students by orienting them to job possibilities and by training them in techniques of job hunting. Interested students should request an appointment through the departmental secretary. Freshman CompositionAccording to their performance in high school and on the ACT examination, students may be placed either in the regular sequence of English 101, 102, 103 or in English 100 to review English fundamentals before entering English 101. A grade of C or better is necessary in English 100 before students placed there may proceed to English 101. When entering upon English 101, 102, and 103, students are required to take classes in sequential order. Students desiring advanced composition instruction in place of English 101, 102, and 103 are requested to consult the chairman of the English Department or the director of composition. Developmental StudiesThe English Department offers individualized, performance based skills classes at the developmental level in both reading and writing. These courses are designed for the student who lacks college level or community survival reading and writing skills. Classes are entirely individual instruction and begin at the skill level of the student. For that reason a student may register at any time during the quarter that his low skill level is discovered. Students may register concurrently for the reading and writing courses. In the event a student has not achieved required competency levels within a quarter, he must then register for the uncompleted course for the following quarter or receive special permission in writing from the instructor to postpone completion of the course. The same guidelines apply for postponement as for an incomplete. At the end of the quarter in which a student completes a class or leaves the program uncompleted without written permission, he will receive an exit grade of either credit (CR) or no credit (NO. Placement in both reading and writing classes is determined by individual testing, and students should take a test in the Developmental Studies Office before pulling a card for a specific class. 151
