General Departmental Information
Study in the English Department helps students better understand and appreciate the English language and its literature. The Department offers undergraduate and graduate work in American, British, and World Literature, in English Language Studies, in English Education, and in Writing. Work in English leads to greater skill in communication, and since literature is about people, a better understanding and appreciation of it can lead to a better understanding and appreciation of them. Study in English is an excellent preparation for a wide range of careers.
Departmental Honors in English
The honors program in English recognizes the superior scholarship of those students who are able to complete successfully an advanced individual study and writing project. To qualify for the program, students must have completed 25 credits in their major, have an overall GPA of 3.0 and 3.4 in English, and be recommended by three faculty members, including two from the Department of English.
The Chair of the Department, as Director of the program, will appoint an honors advisor and two readers to approve and direct the studies of each student who is admitted. Honor students, under the direction of their advisor, will enroll in English 496 (a three-credit course to be taken in addition to those required for the major in English) and prior to their last quarter in residence will complete a study culminating in the writing of an honors paper, an essay treating a subject appropriate for undergraduate English study and reflecting an awareness of the humanistic emphasis of the discipline. Students whose committee and program director accept the honors paper will graduate with departmental honors in English.

The Enrichment Program is an intercollegiate academic program designed to encourage student exploration and intellectual enrichment.
Enrichment Program courses are academic courses designed to provide faculty and students unique opportunities to explore, in a short course format, topics of academic substance not otherwise offered in the existing curriculum.
Individual course requirements, levels and prerequisites differ as needed to reflect the academic nature and purpose of courses.
All Enrichment Program courses will employ the same prefix (UNIV) and course numbering (e.g., 297, 497, 597). Courses are scheduled after the start of the quarter during weeks 3, 4 and 5, or weeks 6, 7 or 8. The number of contact hours of instruction varies depending on the type of class (e.g., lecture, laboratory, or lecture/laboratory). Upper division enrichment courses stipulating one or more prerequisites are pursuing depth or narrow concentration in topic while lower division couses with no prerequisites are pursuing an introductory or breadth objective.
Enrichment courses are not intended to substitute for either General Education requirements or major or minor requirements. These courses are a part of a student’s enrollment planning—specifically as free electives.
Students may register for Enrichment courses at anytime through the 6th day of the quarter without penalty. If you have a question about a particular Enrichment course, contact the dean’s office where the course is offered.
UNIV 297. Enrichment Course (1). Enrichment course on various topics for freshmen and sophomores to broaden their interest areas. Grade will be S or U.

Environmental Studies Minor (3175)
Students choosing an Environmental Studies minor will be responsible for designing their own course of study in consultation with and subject to the approval of their advisor. Ordinarily the minor will include ENST 301, 302, 303 and one or more of the following electives: ENST 444, ENST 455, HIST 354, or approved field courses from Anthropology, Biology Geology and Geography. Substitutions will be handled on an individual basis. The minor requires a minimum of 20 credits.
The Environmental Studies minor is designed primarily to serve undergraduate education and environmental literacy. Research and graduate education, and community education and service are other goals. Top priority is given to providing a large number of students with the opportunity to assess the nature, scope, and complexities of present and impending environmental problems. This emphasis on establishing environmental literacy among a broad spectrum of students does not preclude the simultaneous development of a smaller number of highly selected environmental specialists. Ordinarily, development of expertise as an environmental specialist requires specialized work which can be pursued by means of undergraduate majors and graduate programs. Other objectives include the provision of public education programs on environmental issues and the stimulation of interdisciplinary research on environmental problems.
ENST 298. Special Topics (1-6).
ENST 301. Earth as an Ecosystem (5). Introduction to the concept of our planet as a finite environment with certain properties essential for life. The dynamic nature of the earth's physical, chemical, geological and biological processes and their interrelated "systems" aspects furnishes the thrust of this treatment.

The Department offers Bachelor of Arts degrees. Specializations and minors are available in Chinese, French, German, Japanese, Russian and Spanish. Students interested in certification to teach may take a major or minor in the target language(s).
Course offerings provide
(1) an introduction to the nature of the language as a facet of culture;
(2) an acquaintance with the literature and culture of the aforementioned languages; and
(3) proficiency in speaking, comprehension and writing.
A fully equipped computer language laboratory provides practice in skill building and proficiency through the use of language software programs. For non-majors or minors, the first and second year sequences of the Foreign Languages Department are designed to provide basic proficiency in a foreign language, and the values of a liberal education. Such proficiency, combined with some other special knowledge or skill, can also lead to many exciting vocational opportunities. The Department recommends that all majors include some organized study in a foreign country where their major language is spoken. Interested students are reminded that there are various study-abroad programs and exchanges administered by the Director of International Studies and Programs. Credit earned in programs abroad will normally count toward satisfaction of the major or minor requirements, but the student should see a foreign language advisor before enrolling in a study abroad program. Credit may also be given for special projects completed while traveling in a foreign country. For information on the requirements and types of projects acceptable, contact the Department. Foreign language majors and minors are encouraged to take courses in related disciplines. Please consult with a major advisor. For more information, visit our web site at http://www.cwu.edu/~forlang/forlanghome.htm
Students must earn a minimum grade of C- in each course allowed toward fulfilling the major and/or minor.
To earn honors in a foreign language, students must be a Foreign Languages major, at least a first quarter senior and have a GPA of 3.4 in the foreign language in question.
