AState English Department

You don’t want to miss this opportunity to see our students’ creativity!!! This panel is a preview of The English, Philosophy, and World Languages’ student literary magazine!

Good morning and welcome back Red Wolves!

Here are our Spring 2024 hours! 7PM-10PM sessions will be by appointment only, but as usual all other hours are fair game for scheduled appointments + walk-ins. Have a great semester! We can’t wait to help you accomplish your best writing! ✍️❤️

Thank you to all the students who attended and presented at the First-Year Composition Colloquium! It was a great day of showcasing student research projects!

The “Spooky at Story” event was a great success! Thank you to Abby Frisby for her organizing skills and to all the National Day on Writing committee members and to Tabatha Simpson-Farrow for leading the committee.

Attention all you spooky season lovers! As part of National Day on Writing, the A-State Writing Center is putting on an event at Story Coffee House on October 20th! Come out from 6-8 that night for a costume contest, candy apples, and spooky stories! Did we mention the costume contest comes with prizes? 😏 The first place prize is coming from our wonderful Story Coffee House ☕️, second place from Verb Bookstore, and third from Wicked Suds🔮👻!!! We can’t wait to see you there!

Hello everyone!
My name is Dr. Kristen Ruccio, and I'm the Director of First Year Writing and an Assistant Professor of English at A-State. We are engaging in a self-study of the department for a report due in January 2024, and one of my duties is gathering information about graduates from our program. Could you send me a blurb (maybe paragraph) about what you've been up to since graduating from A-State and how your degree impacts your job?
If you've got questions or you're ready to send in the information, my email is [email protected]. The information will be used in our report to The Office of Assessment. While external reviewers (2 English professors and/or administrators from other universities) will read the self-study, the final report is an internal document. To further preserve your privacy, I will keep the original information secured in my office, and I will use pseudonyms instead of your names in the self-study and final report. I would like to gather this information over the next 2-4 weeks, so please send the information by 31 October. Thank you so much!
