English: Readings and Lectures Series

An important part of the intellectual development of all students takes place outside of the classroom in the form of lectures, readings, and other such cultural events. The English Department provide numerous opportunities for students to hear lectures and readings by leading poets, writers, and literary scholars--and, often, to spend time with the visiting writers in class or over dinner or coffee.  The Schoenfeldt Distinguished Writers Series brings an additional two or three writers with ties to the Northwest to campus each year.   Other departments and groups on campus also arrange for cultural, intellectual, and artistic events and speakers.
