The Baruch College Faculty Handbook

Last updated on 10/07/2002

In a predominantly business college where most of our students
graduate with the professional B.B.A. degree, the faculty in the
Department of English is committed to the belief that all Baruch
students should receive, insofar as possible, a humanistic education.
A major mission is helping to ensure that the students in our required
freshman writing and sophomore Great Works courses learn the skills
in reading, writing, and critical thinking that are essential for
educated citizens and leaders in business and the professions. A
second mission is providing the best possible education in literature
and film for our majors and minors. A third mission is providing
the best possible education in journalism and creative writing for
our majors and minors in journalism/creative writing and business
journalism.
