English Department One memory which all Monricello students hold in common is that of first year Knglish. Juniors are placed in an Knglish course which consists of grammar and composition. They are also acquainted with several contemporary novels, short stories, essays, plays, and poems. Kach student is given the opportunity of learning how to read with appreciation and how to express her thoughts creatively both in oral and written work. A course in Biblical literature is offered covering both the Old and New Testaments of the King James Version. This is taught not from a theological point of view, bur rather as a cultural heritage of Knglish speaking people. Knglish literature, a course open to seniors only, is a study of classical literature from the eighth century to the present. Ki-by Brazii.i.k Ci.oyd A.B.
