ENGLISH DEPARTMENT To teach students, not a subject, is our primary aim. Utilizing all of the communication skills, we hope to form men who will use effective speech and writing for their own and their fellow's betterment. We wish to convince the student that literature exists for his enjoyment and to make him aware of its power to sharpen perception, enrich life and deepen compassion by enlarging his knowledge of human strength and human frailty. For reading and for the many other modern facets of entertainment. we hope to aid him in making independent, responsible judgments, based on sound moral and artistic criteria. We would like him to leave Ryan convinced that English is unique among his studies, literature being truly the mirror of life. Mr Walter Zeglinski. Pennsylvania State University. B A .
