Getting English Papers Done

As an English major the largest portion of my workload consists of written papers, critiques and reading which, to be honest, is a pretty large amount of work to have to do every week, especially when you have work in other classes too. Without proper organization it can turn into a real mountain of papers that will eventually start coming down if you don't take care of everything when it needs to be done. The English Department at the University of Kansas is a well established program with many facilities, such as the writer's corner located in every library, available to English majors as well as any other student looking for an ideal writing atmosphere. These places are great for getting a lot of work done at once and have been a godsend when I can't concentrate on my schoolwork at home. The curriculum has a variety of choices all leading to success in the major. Students can choose to focus there studies on their strengths or refine some neglected practices in the art with options ranging from creative writing to Shakespearian literature. The student advisors in the English Department are available on a regular basis and are extremely attentive to students with a real interest in their major. Many of the advisors are also professors so their availability is really important when it comes time to get some revisions done and they're aware of it. The campus newsletters and newspaper is a great way to explore the writing field and a step further would be to participate in the numerous writing contests or scholarship programs offered by the department.
