All other English courses are open to first year students, but only with the permission of the Chairman of the English Department and the instructor of the course. Students may use only one full course equivalent in English from the 100-level to fulfill the minimum English requirements. Upper years: English 251 is strongly recommended for second year. With the consent of the Department upper year courses may be taken at any time during the upper years without regard to course number or “level.” Restrictions: English 240, 335, and courses in theatre (designated “Drama” in the calendar) may not be included as approved English courses in fulfilling the minimum course requirements for an English Programme, but may be chosen as non-English electives.
