New English Department Guide

Last semester, Andrea Broomfield took control over the much-needed revision of our English Department Guide. It had been approximately 15 years since the last major revision. The Department Guide is more than 70 pages long.  In addition to detailed overviews of our core writing classes (ENGL 102, 106, 121, and 122), the Guide also contains descriptions of our upper-level writing classes and literature classes.  Several essays by faculty provide advice for teaching at the community college, diffusing tension in the classroom, integrating peer review workshops, and critical reading.   The Guide is available in print form and online: https://sites.google.com/view/jcccenglishprogramguide/home.  In addition to Andrea Broomfield,  Diane Davis and Maureen Fitzpatrick also helped with writing and editing. Several other faculty members from the English department contributed essays to the EPG: Bob Brannan, Beth Gulley, Ted Rollins, and Jim McWard.
