English majors read wide-ranging texts from Shakespeare to Sherman Alexie. Students
master the art of writing and analysis while investigating a wealth of diverse literature,
in courses that focus on everything from folklore to young adult fiction. Well-qualified,
caring professors bring a variety of global and Christian perspectives, sparking interesting
discussions and imaginative interpretations during class times.
Integrated Faith CBU students and faculty are candid about their Christian faith and its connection
to scholarly pursuits. Being able to teach from a faith-based perspective gives professors
the freedom in the classroom to explore the connections between writing and loving
God with all one’s mind.
Academic Community The community among English students runs deep. They support each other through encouragement,
prayer and laughter, as well as in practical ways. Students commiserate with each
other in hardships, read each other’s essay drafts and share books or other scholarly
resources needed for a project.
