Achievement in Literary Study by Non-Majors
The English Department at the University of Colorado honors achievements in literary study by our non-majors. Non-majors are valued members of our Department and their essays and creative projects contribute to our mission of empathetic and responsible engagement with both texts and the world beyond the classroom. These students demonstrate that the study of literature and the humanities is crucial for gaining insight into the world, no matter what your discipline or major. Warm congratulations to them for their outstanding skills in reading, writing, and critical thinking!
