Im thinking about becoming an English major. What do I do now?
Talk to people. One excellent resource is the English major Peer Advisors, any of whom would be glad to give you his or her perspective on English. You can find their names, telephone numbers, and email addresses on the Peer Advisors page; you may even have had one visit your Literary Experience or Core Humanities class. Dont be shy about contacting them; these students look forward to speaking to prospective majors. English faculty are also happy to discuss the English major. You probably already know a member of the English Department from a Literary Experience class, and possibly from an Augustine and Culture seminar. One English faculty member is also particularly designated to talk to prospective majors: Prof. Michael Berthold. Just call the English department secretaries (x9-4630), who will set up an appointment for you. You can also contact any English advisor.
