The mission of the English Department is

  • to provide learning-centered world-class education* in composition and literature courses at the freshman and sophomore level for both full-time and part-time students in career and transfer programs (including the Core Curriculum Program), as well as for students seeking personal development.
  • to meet the needs of the people in its service area, the Department provides traditional and alternative delivery modes, and instructional strategies and technology appropriate to course objectives.
  • continually assess student academic achievement for the purposes of ongoing improvement.

*Implicit in the study of English and literature is an appreciation of the diversity and multiculturalism of the world's writing.
