"The English capstone project stands as the culmination of an English major's work at Westminster College," said David Swerdlow, associate professor of English.  "Over a period of two semesters, each student moves through the challenging process of identifying, developing and creating a substantial work - both critical and creative in nature - on a subject that has engaged his or her intellect and imagination.  Much of the project is created independently by the student, fostering the self-reliance that the department has set as one of its primary objectives for its students."

This colloquium is the final presentation in a series of five scheduled for the George Bleasby Colloquia, a series of literary events in honor of Dr. Bleasby, who chaired the Department of English at Westminster from 1954-75.

The event is free and open to the public.  For more information, contact Swerdlow at (724) 946-7345 or e-mail dswerdlw@westminster.edu.
