With an emphasis on creative writing, varied reading experiences, and participation in class discussion, the English department strives to prepare students for a creative life in an adult world. Field trips to museums, current movies and plays, and other areas of cultural interest are organized to supplement the classroom learning. English in the Sophomore year teaches the uses of the language, its structure, and the techniques of composition. Junior English, a study of American literature from the writings of the early colonists to current drama, poetry, and short stories, consists of extensive reading and discussion. Senior English classes, who read Beowulf, plays of Shakespeare, contemporary English poetry, and representative literature from other periods, make a detailed study ' of the drama. One highlight of the advanced senior English curriculum is the ' year-end project,” for which the students must try their hands at writing, directing, and acting their own plays.
