SDSU English Majors and Minors,
do please remember that
Comparative Literature courses
count toward your degree in
English or your minor. Also, as of
Fall 2000, all brand spanking
New English majors
must take twoupper-division
Comparative Literature courses.

you might want to remember as well...
 

  • ...CompLit classes are smaller...
  • ...that while there are over 500 majors in English at SDSU there are only twenty-something CompLit majors...
  • ...CompLit is always already a hot field!

  • Doubtful?

    Run, run, run!  There's very good news for IMPACTION-fearing literati. A generous policy loophole exists that provides a way around impaction nastinessAND provides you with a chic Meret Oppenheim meets Jacques Derrida meets García Márquez MAJOR.  That's right: become a COMPARATIVE LITERATURE major!
    Comparative Literature, it's not just for breakfast anymore!
