Living the rustic life We live at NELP for 45 days in the woods, in simple cabins along a lake, with no cell phones, computers, recorded music or other things that tend to take up a lot of our time in Ann Arbor.

Writing Into and Out of My Long-Distance Grief by Dur e Aziz Amna

The violence against black people our nation has witnessed in recent weeks and months has left members of this department stunned and sickened, as have ongoing efforts to rationalize long-standing regimes of oppression. We find little to surprise us in these dismal spectacles. As many U-M English faculty have taught and written about for years, and as no small number have shared in their own personal stories, these newest outrages only extend a long and heart-wrenching history and remind us all of the depths of callous complicity that have sustained it.

The protests that we’ve seen and that many in our department have joined offer a glimmer of hope that this time, at long last, we might muster together the clarity of vision to confront and dismantle deep-rooted structures of racist violence. While much of our focus has been on the national scene, systemic racism has long saturated institutions of every kind, and neither our discipline nor our department are free of its damaging habits and effects.

The Department of English pledges a commitment, in approaching a new academic year, to the thoughtful scrutiny and revision of our own entrenched practices, priorities, and assumptions in order more courageously to address lingering legacies of exclusion and to cultivate a space where all students, staff, and faculty can thrive while being affirmed and supported in the work they do.

As an English major at Cal State Fullerton, you enter a community of researchers and educators who care intensely about the study of literature and writing and who value the learning that happens in the classroom and in the hallways and walkways between classrooms. At Cal State Fullerton, you will have the opportunity to take classes from faculty who have completed advanced study in literature from a variety of cultural and historical traditions, including literary studies, literary theory, creative writing, rhetorical studies, and English education. You will also have the chance to develop leadership skills in English service organizations and academic programs and to hone advanced research and communication techniques through collaborative research with your fellow students and with faculty.

Our major program emphasizes the production of academic, professional, and creative writing and the study of the literatures of England and America, and intersecting countries across the globe. Faculty will ask you to examine the diverse ways in which writing and literature let us see the past, understand advanced rhetorical and linguistic techniques, and make sense of the world through narrative.

The major in English at Cal State Fullerton is suitable for students interested in any of the wide-range of professions that expect excellence in reading and writing—including education, creative and professional writing, public service and preparation for further study in literature, law, medicine, or business. The major may be combined with preparation for elementary and secondary school teaching. In addition, it can provide a foundation for students who intend to pursue advanced degrees in preparation for teaching at the college level.
