E n gli s h D t m e n t This year the English Department, under the leadership of Bro. Thomas Corbett, S.M., introduced a new format designed to give the student a better background for college. It included increased em- phasis on composition by requiring an output of at least one piece of writing a week from everyone, whether it be a book report, an essay or some type of fictional work, and by making these compositions worth 3OfM-Q of the final mark. Bro. Corbett also was responsible for having the best of these fictional works published in TARMAC. Another feature of this new system was the standardizing of the quarterly exams. Furthermore, the Department took the first step in introducing a World Literature course. This year's Sophomores and Juniors studied American Litera- ture, usually only a Junior course. This lays the foundation for the present Sophomores to take the new World course as Seniors while also having had all the other background necessary. English Literature will be moved to the Junior year, etc. Advanced placement courses and tests were also part of the English program during the past year. MR. GEORGE GRATTON. A.B.
