The Department of English develops the communication and critical thinking skills of students for all degree and certificate programs in the college. The Department sees these skills as essential to success at the college, in the workforce, or in advanced education. To these ends, it offers courses in developmental writing and reading, college composition, research, literature, film, and oral communication. The Department recognizes the diversity of our students’ cultures, backgrounds, ages, and learning styles and encourages the students to use their experiences as tools in the learning process.
