Graduating Senior Spotlight Part 3: Sarah Norris

The department wishes its graduating seniors the best as they apply for jobs and begin the exciting transition to the next chapter of their lives! This post is the third installment in a series to spotlight these seniors, who generously shared their favorite memory of being a major in the English Department and their post-graduation plans

Sarah Norris:

I am an English and Creative Writing double major.

My favorite memories from being part of the English department include
every class I had with former professor, Joe Mackall, analyzing various texts ranging from John Milton's Paradise Lost to Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley's Frankenstein, to Toni Morrison's Beloved, and crafting a paper over the connotations of setting in the novel, Pride and Prejudice, comparing it with two of its film adaptations.

After graduation I plan to continue to drink copious amounts of coffee as I write novels, to find a publishing or editing job local to Ashland, and maybe someday travel to Italy!
