Hello to all you English majors out there! I absolutely loved all my english courses when I was majoring in English and would love to share experiences with anyone else who did or is doing the same. We had a few famous poets teaching classes when I was in college, and students raved about the experience of attending them. Anyone else have guest professors or special professors that really got them into the whole Literature side of things?

I saw David Foster Wallace speak. He was pretty interesting. Infinite Jest is one of the best books I've read in awhile. And 'Everything and More..." is pretty good too.

I really loved my English classes in college as well. Unfortunately, at my school we didn't have any famous poets teaching class. That would have been very interesting!!

I am attending graduate school majoring in Literature. So far I like it a lot. I majored in English in my undergrad as well. Smile

Hi! My heart has always been set to getting a degree in Comparative Literature but I chose another course. Sad
