Black lives matter. We affirm this as a dept. that studies words & stories. As students of Douglass, Hurston, Hughes, Baldwin, Morrison, & others, we believe these writers when, in Angelou’s words, they have shown us who they are. May justice prevail, & may we contribute to it.

We're down to the last five weeks of class and major writing projects will be due before you know it! Book an appointment with the Writing Center now while there are still plenty of slots available. 'Cause... you know... sometimes it can take a bit to get things moving.
