The Department of English at Grove City College offers students meaningful opportunities to conduct literary research under the guidance of experienced faculty.  Students who have completed all the courses we offer in a particular area of study may apply to do an Independent Study or Independent Research project with a particular faculty member.  Students may also submit papers for inclusion in the annual Christian Writers Conference sponsored by the English department or for publication in the intellectual journal published quarterly by the English department, The Quad.  Finally, students who have completed English 450: Literary Criticism & Theory may apply to participate in the English 488: Honors Seminar, for which students must complete either a 35-50 page thesis analyzing a work of literature from a contemporary theoretical perspective or a creative work of comparable length.
