Ongoing Events

Tea Stops!
To foster a greater sense of community among English concentrators, the department has instituted
Tea Stops, a biweekly informal event open to all members of the department. While you're here, get to know your fellow concentrators, Faculty, solicit advice, or just relax with a cup of hot tea and some friendly conversation. Cookies, brownies, coffee and, of course, tea will be served. We look forward to seeing you there!
