English English Department Adds Two New Courses From the beginning, man has been involved in a never- ending search for self-expression. In order to aid its students in this search, Richmond Academy has initiated two new programs this year. These courses, one in speech and one in composition and rhetoric, with journalism, aid the student in communicating his ideas in public speaking and in writing. In addition to composition and grammar, the regular Eng- lish curriculum includes a general introduction to literature in the sophomore year, a survey of American literature in the Junior year, and a detailed analysis of English literature in the senior year. With this background of requirements and electives, graduates of Richmond Academy are thoroughly prepared for college work. Charles F. Byrd. Jr. A.B.. Mercer M. Ed..
