Albion College

Michigan, United States

Residential program

The English department at Albion College prides itself on excellent teaching. We value small class sizes and personal contact between students and professors. The Department has faculty members with research specialization and expertise in most areas of English, American, and world literature written in English, as well as in the history of the English language and creative writing. Two faculty members have been honored by endowed chairs and six have received college-wide recognition in the form of Distinguished Teaching awards.

The Albion Review, the national undergraduate literary journal, publishes poetry, fiction, creative nonfiction, and visual art of undergraduates from across the country. It is produced and edited entirely by students, and is distributed beyond the campus. Recent issues have included interviews with professional writers and artists.

The Wilson poet is a practicing poet who gives a poetry reading, appears in classes, and meets with students. Wilson poets have included such distinguished names as Stephen Spender, Gwendolyn Brooks, Galway Kinnell, Gary Snyder, Marie Howe, and Terrance Hayes.
