It’s starting to really feel like Summer in the Fraser Valley. It’s hotter. The days are longer. That means it’s time to work that Summer job, plan a camping trip, BBQ different things, and, of course, register for your Fall English courses at UFV!<\/p>\n

This Fall, the English department has an array of great courses for you to consider, and we are so excited about them we even made posters! However, many of you are not on campus to enjoy the posters in person, so we’ve decided to to circulate them through our social media channels, too. Here they are, in no particular order:<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Register for one, two, three or even all of them! (well, you probably can’t take all of them.)<\/p>\n

    Don’t forget: taking English courses provides many benefits.\u00a0Today\u2019s university graduate\u00a0must be able to understand, interpret, and respond effectively to a rapidly changing world. Courses like those above help\u00a0by cultivating\u00a0communication skills, interpretive skills, critical thinking, and cultural awareness.<\/p>\n

    But even setting aside professional skills and future goals, English courses broaden our perspective on the world, and deepen our appreciation and understanding of language, history, art and society.<\/p>\n
