Our Personnel
The English, Languages, and Philosophy Studies Department provides a broad range of courses designed to meet the needs of both full-time and part-time students. The English faculty offer those composition courses required in transfer programs. A wide variety of second-year courses is also offered: genre studies courses, technical writing, and American and British literature courses that are necessary for English and education majors. The department also offers three journalism courses: News Writing, Editing and Layout, and Newspaper Staff. The Foreign Languages faculty provide elementary and second-year courses in French, Spanish, and Japanese. These courses concentrate on oral and written language skills and on the civilization and culture of the country.
