An English Major's Study Abroad Experience
Why Major in English?
The major in English at Lebanon Valley College advances the key goals of a liberal arts education by teaching students to ask probing questions about a wide range of texts and to appreciate the variety of creative accomplishments in the English language. While majors may choose to concentrate in literature, communications, theater or secondary education, the basis for all concentrations is the study of literature: imaginative, complex, and challenging texts in a variety of genres and media. All majors also learn the skills of clear and concise expression as well as of effective collection, organization, and presentation of material.
