Next year a new course in English Composition, called English 22, will be given by Mr. Gates. It will be open to those who having obtained grade C in English A, prefer it to English B. Attendance will be required three hours a week in the class room and the work will count a full course.
The aim of the course is to give to those men who have shown some talent for English composition a better opportunity for developing their style than is given in English B.
The work will consist of sixteen fortnightly themes which will be criticised in substantially the same way as English B themes, and there will be the regular conferences with the instructor. Besides this, there will be a certain amount of daily theme work similar to that in English 12. In the class room, lectures will be given on the different kinds of composition and passages from standard authors will be taken up and analyzed; themes also will be read and discussed and the students will be expected to take part in the discussion.
A full description of the course will be found in the pamphlet of the English Department which will be out next week.
