Dear English Majors and Minors, I assume many of you heard the news that classes are cancelled starting tomorrow, March 12 through March 18. Starting March 19 all classes will move online for the rest of the semester. Your professors will be in touch with more information. Please know that the campus will be open so you'll still be able to access computer labs and the library. If you need advising for the major or minor and/or for pre-registration, please email Professor Sian Silyn Roberts (sian.silynroberts(a)qc.cuny.edu<mailto:sian.silynroberts@qc.cuny.edu>) or english(a)qc.cuny.edu<mailto:english@qc.cuny.edu>. Please be safe out there-- and remember to wash your hands frequently! all my best, Karen Weingarten Acting Chair and Associate Professor English Department Klapper Hall 602 Queens College, CUNY http://english.qc.cuny.edu
