The English Department’s “combination classes” give students the opportunity to approach two topics at the same time to improve their skills and understanding of both. For example, in a 10-credit composition and literature combination, students read, discuss, analyze, and write about significant literary works. The Department recommends that students in combination classes have college-level placement.
