variety of fulfilling careers. Students who major in English develop their appreciation of the power of language in its many forms. They acquire a strong foundation in literature and literary interpretation, as well as writing in a variety of styles and genres. Our students work closely with an English-major advisor to choose elective courses that match their interests and career goals, whether their focus is literary studies, professional writing and publishing, or teaching. Our class sizes are small: faculty get to know students well and mentor them closely throughout their academic journeys. Local internships offer students the opportunity to apply skills learned in the classroom in meaningful and practical ways in schools, publishing companies, businesses, and community organizations. Nestled against a forested hillside, Ashland boasts a lively arts and literary culture that creates the perfect setting for the English Program at SOU.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-2nfpaz2-b7b1b970595c5b1099987e7e645661de\">\n.flex_column.av-2nfpaz2-b7b1b970595c5b1099987e7e645661de{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0 0 0 0;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-2nfpaz2-b7b1b970595c5b1099987e7e645661de av_one_fifth  avia-builder-el-10  el_after_av_three_fifth  avia-builder-el-last  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='av_section_3' aria-label='SOU English About Page - Contact Section' class='avia-section av-28rb3kn-7cacd355831113590ac441fc24acaea2 alternate_color avia-section-default avia-no-border-styling  avia-builder-el-11  el_after_av_section  avia-builder-el-last  avia-bg-style-scroll container_wrap fullsize'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-full alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-61582'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_heading-adc9008b851b7d95be39c5a1f007be8a\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-adc9008b851b7d95be39c5a1f007be8a{\npadding-bottom:0;\nfont-size:28px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-adc9008b851b7d95be39c5a1f007be8a .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-adc9008b851b7d95be39c5a1f007be8a .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:28px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-av_heading-adc9008b851b7d95be39c5a1f007be8a .av-subheading{\nfont-size:16px;\n}\n\n@media only screen and (min-width: 480px) and (max-width: 767px){ \n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-adc9008b851b7d95be39c5a1f007be8a .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:0.8em;\n}\n}\n\n@media only screen and (max-width: 479px){ \n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-adc9008b851b7d95be39c5a1f007be8a .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:0.8em;\n}\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-av_heading-adc9008b851b7d95be39c5a1f007be8a av-special-heading-h2 custom-color-heading blockquote modern-quote modern-centered  avia-builder-el-12  el_before_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-first  av-inherit-size'><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Contact the English Program<\/h2><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-18xhmmv-94e879e3e63fa86b4193d4bded8923f9 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: center\"><span class=\"heavy-man\">SOU English Program<\/span><br \/>\n1250 Siskiyou Blvd.<br \/>\nAshland, OR 97520<br \/>\n<a href=\"tel:+15415526181\">541.552.6181<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>\u2013 Questions About English? \u2013<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div  class='avia-button-wrap av-w3jed3-a6bc9fdd247bdfb91cbe94d14f0b52b4-wrap avia-button-center  avia-builder-el-14  el_after_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-last '><a href="https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/english\/contact\/"  class='avia-button av-w3jed3-a6bc9fdd247bdfb91cbe94d14f0b52b4 av-link-btn avia-icon_select-no avia-size-large avia-position-center avia-color-light'   aria-label=\"CONTACT US\"><span class='avia_iconbox_title' >CONTACT US<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":0,"parent":61559,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-61582","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.4 (Yoast SEO v24.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>About English - SOU Academic Programs<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The English Program at SOU offers a well-rounded undergraduate education, launching students to a variety of fulfilling careers.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/english\/about\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"About English - SOU Academic Programs\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The English Program at SOU offers a well-rounded undergraduate education, launching students to a variety of fulfilling careers.
