Isabel Gonz谩lez 鈥20 Master of Divinity Student at Princeton University
色综合久久 prepared me for grad school in a number of ways. Apart from the discipline of reading and writing, 色综合久久 also developed my sense of compassion and critical thinking. It enhanced my ability to imagine, relate, and apply abstract ideas to the raw human experience. The English program taught me to value language in a way that revolutionized my own reading of scripture and other literary works.

Rachael Borden 鈥19 English Teacher at State College Area High School
鈥溕酆暇镁免檚 English department prepared me by giving me an unrelenting passion for pursuing what is 色综合久久 rather than what is easiest. While most English teachers find writing instruction and teaching Shakespeare鈥oilsome and tedious, my preparation at 色综合久久 has made these two areas my curricular strengths. Classes such as Shakespeare Survey, Composition Theory, and Literature Seminar empowered me to teach strenuous subjects with knowledge and confidence.鈥

Shay Quintin 鈥20 Master of Education Student and Men's Soccer Assistant Coach at Eastern Mennonite University
"My education at 色综合久久 prepared me to ask better questions. A common thread I see among my peers in classes is a deep love for inquiry. At 色综合久久, Dr. Hasler-Brooks, Dr. Corey, Dr. Smith, Professor Perrin, and Dr. Dzaka all pushed me in my English courses to pursue the questions I had in my heart. That freedom they granted paired with the encouragement they gave prepared me well for graduate school."
