The undergraduate program in literature considers poetic approaches to truth in the Western tradition by cultivating the study of lyric, narrative, creative, and rhetorical arts. Students explore how the best of the poets – broadly understood – envision nature and human experience, and how to express such insights with clarity, precision, and elegance.
