This course, the second half of a year-long sequence of core English courses, is designed for students whose first language is something other than English. It may be taken in place of ENGL 1080: Literature Core and satisfies the literature core requirement. Students will have ample opportunity to participate in group discussions as they explore a variety of literary genres from short fiction to poetry to drama, with a focus on American literature. Support for language issues including those related to writing is an important component of the course. Seats are prioritized for students who have been recommended for targeted language support.Students place into this course based on BC's English Writing Assessment taken during the summer prior to freshmen year or in consultation with the director of the program,lynne.anderson@bc.edu

The Best Professor No one is better than her

Great teacher overall. Asked to change my lit core's teacher next semester to be with her (was put with a random teacher)
Semester not recorded
I had her for two semesters, I think that her classes are kind of useless and most of the content is common knowledge. She can be nice at times but changes the assignment the night before it is due, assigns readings for the day after at 9pm, and is usually not available outside of class.
