ENG 276The Harlem Renaissance to the Present

Electives in English-12 additional credits selected from any English Department courses not taken to meet the above requirements. If students take Writer’s Workshop twice for a total of eight credit hours, they must also take another English elective, for four credits, to fulfill the requirement of twelve credit hours in English electives. Or, students may choose to substitute for English electives with any of the following courses offered through the School of Humanities and Behavioral Social Sciences: Mass Media and Society, Introduction in Journalism, Topics in Journalism, and Newspaper Production. When used as substitutes for English electives, these courses may be counted toward the twelve required English elective credits. They need not accumulate, however, toward the 36 credits in English that are required as part of the major. Majors may also take up to twelve additional hours of English courses, for a total of no more than 48 hours, although they are not required to do so. Joint majors combining English and another discipline must take at least 24 hours in English, consisting of the required major courses. Joint majors may also take up to eight additional hours of English courses, for a total of not more than 32 hours, although they are not required to do so.
