I'm writing with a few announcements. The first big one is that the Academic Senate just approved a new version of the English Major with fewer credits/ course requirements. As continuing English majors you have the option to opt in to this new major. Professor Sian Silyn Roberts and I will be hosting a webinar on Friday, May 8, 2020 from 2- 2:45 pm that explains the new changes. At the end of the webinar, we'll take questions and comments from you, and we'll explain how you can opt in to the new major. We also want to use the opportunity to connect with you to hear about any general questions and concerns you might have about this semester and next fall. If you'd to attend the webinar, please RSVP here by May 7: https://forms.gle/E94ppfRCcgYaBZ3o7 After the webinar, we'll post the information on our department website as well, in case you couldn't attend the webinar. I'll email again to let you know when everything can be accessed. I look forward to seeing many of you on May 8. I hope you're all taking care. all my best, Karen Weingarten Acting Chair of English Queens College, CUNY
