ENGLISH DEPARTMENT Both modern technology and traditional scholarships are combined to make the freshman English program one of the most exciting and effective in higher education today. In this ad- vanced-concept course, students meet for profes- sionally prepared and edited audio-tape lectures once each week. Following the tape session, stu- dents meet in small classes for group discussion of the principles of writing covered by each tape. And finally, for individual help, students attend writing laboratory sessions in which tutorial assistance is provided by experienced writing instructors. Un- like freshman English courses in most colleges, which tend to be either “introduction to literature” courses of “English for English majors courses, freshman English at ECC is an “English for every- body course. Such things as poetry, novels, creative writing—the usual “stuff” of English classes—these the interested student can pursue on his own: he won't find them in freshman English at Elizabethtown.

an SPEECH Mini-skirts—midi-politics— maxi-problems. Our highly com- plex and extremely mobile soci- ety makes demands of all of us, the greatest and the least of which depend upon accurate communication. Through the Speech Program at ECC, the courses of study in public speak- ing, oral interpretation, and argumentation play an in- tegral and rewarding role in the college and the community. A course strongly recommended for all Education majors at ECC, Speech is encouraged as an excit- ing elective for all students.
