MAJOR EXPLORATION SCAVENGER HUNT
While reading through the English major I really liked how that one part of the mission is for us to be provided with the “tools to think, analyze and write with confidence.” As someone who wants to focus on the writing aspect of English, seeing that helped me know I will have great opportunities. Continuing to read through the English major, I learned about all of the courses that I am able to take that have to do with English. Being able to take classes like, Topics in creative writing, Creative writing: Poetry, and Creative writing: Short fiction, which I am currently taking. Seeing all the options as someone who wants to focus on writing excites me for future classes. Another thing I learned that I am very interested in taking next semester is Introduction to Journalism. I didn’t know that there was a class for journalism. I am currently a part of the UNE newspaper The Bolt so that is a class I am very interested in. I had been thinking about internships so learning about the English Studies internship l and English Studies internship ll, I was happy to see since that is something that interests me. A big thing I learned is the amount of elective courses offered. I could take a class that has to do with film and also take a class about literary topics. So learning all those options are very helpful.
