Everyone, Be It Harper Lee Or Camus ENGLISH - 1. THE LANGUAGE OF THE ENGLISH, SPOKEN ALSO IN THE UNITED STATES AND MOST PARTS OF THE BRITISH EMPIRE. 2. A SCHOOL COURSE OR CLASS IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE OR ITS LIT- ERATURE. This definition from Webster's New World Dictionary depicts the English department as dull and boring. This, however, was not the case. Who could find sufficient time to be bored while trying to translate Romeo and Juliet into language your average freshman can comprehend, watching Mrs. Strulluf down Coke after Coke after Coke, or waiting, in vain it seemed at times, for Mr. Van Bibber's answer book to agree with him? How many of us merely pretended to read assigned books and then miraculously received a decent grade on the test? Any underclassman could take lessons in that from Seniors who have perfected the art. Good grammar is usually considered obsolete. You can't say, though, the teachers didn't try to pound gerunds, infinitives, and participles into thick heads that found verbals about as interesting as Mr. Morgan's jokes. 35
