English & Professional Writing
What I like most about the English and Professional Writing program is the focus on teaching practical skills that provides students with valuable experience for when we go out into the workforce. I also like that the program keeps up with new trends in writing platforms and technologies. It teaches us the skills we need to know to work in a highly digitized world.
Most importantly, though, I like that we are a small program. Classmates and professors know your name, which I say as a good thing! The professors in this program truly care about their students' success.
