English Makes a Video!

If it's ironic that we're taking to visual media to show how studies in English prepare our students for a diverse array of careers, we don't care: It was fun. What can you do with a degree in English? Banker, poet, curator, mall developer, teacher, novelist, lawyer, environmental policy maker, publisher, and, um, radio show host: we filmed 'em all.

English Students Rise to Challenges

Son of a Seattle longshoreman, Sam Anderson will be the first in his family to earn a bachelor's degree. Alysha Bohanon has been dealing with chronic pain for six years. Both are students recognized by the Beverly Atkinson Scholarship for Outstanding Non-Traditional English Majors. This year's English fundraising efforts are focusing on four important funds, one each for the undergraduate, MFA, and PhD programs, as well as the literary magazine produced by our graduate students, dislocate. We profile the funds over the next two issues of e-Quarterly.
