      English Majors 
           on the Go
English majors are traveling far and wide this year.  Bridget Cannon is in Japan teaching English in the High Schools.  Monica Palladino is in  South Korea, doing the same.
 
 
Take your Pick!  
It's all about choice. At Queens, English Majors can choose to focus on Literature or Creative Writing, or Drama. You'll travel in the realm of your imagination, hone your analytical, reading, and writing skills, gain confidence in your ability to speak, present, perform, research and  persuade.  Enjoy the pleasure of making new acquaintances with every turn of the page while you develop marketable skills and participate in the evolution of your culture.  Let the magic of literature and writing and theatre transform you into an interesting, dynamic, competent, creative and knowledgeable person, the kind of person who is written for success.
It's your choice.
