More hours for English majors
Department passes major changes
By Nancy Brumbaugh
The UNL English Department has
approved two changes for the graduation
requirements of English majors, said Gerry
Brookes, vice chairperson of the English
Department.
The two changes will go to the College
Curriculum Committee and the College
Faculty for further approval before they
will become part of an English majors' cur
riculum. 'The first (change) is to require 18
hours above English 299 with at least six of
those hours at the 400 level," Brookes said.
He said that the second change is to in
crease the hours required for an English
major from 32 to 36.
Brookes said that the requirement of 18
hours above English 299 "is simply to en-

courage students to take more courses at
the 300 and 400 level." He said that gen
erally, there are "more substantial courses
at the 300 and 400 level."
"For most majors, this won't be much
of a change," Brookes said. He said that
most majors already take that many hours
above the 299 level, and that the new re
quirements will "encourage those few stu
dents" who normally wouldn't take those
classes to register for higher level courses.
Brookes said that since most of the
English classes are three hour courses, the
department wanted to change the number
of hours required for a major from 32 to
36. Thirty -two" is not divisible by three so
it makes sense to change the number,"
Brookes said.
He said that with the two proposed
changes, an English major would take 18
hours below the 300 level and the same
number above the 300 level to fulfill gradu
ation requirements.
Brookes said that he didn't think the
added four hour requirement would cause
many problems. "It's not going to have a
big affect on majors," he said, "because
most students already take 36 hours. He
added that because freshman English is
counted toward an English major, "it's not
a lot of hours for a major."
Brookes mentioned some other "tenta
tive ideas" that the English Department is
considering. One would be to add a senior
seminar for English majors. Another would
be a "formal or informal course to help
students understand what people who are
English majors do after they graduate,"
Brookes said. The third idea was to plan a
series of speakers for English majors.
"These are things that are still in the
works," Brookes said.
