Sponsoring department: English
The Multicultural U.S./British Literature minor includes texts from the U.S. and U.K. by writers of different ethnicities, genders, sexualities, classes, and ability/disability status. It focuses on the complexity of two countries in which people of many different cultures cohabit. It provides grounding in recent debates in literary study and features intensive work in effective writing and expression. Majors in Media and Communication, Business programs, and other areas will benefit from this minor, which improves communication skills that are fundamental to teaching, writing, and speaking.
