"My time at Misericordia University as an English major did an excellent job preparing me for my current job as an editor at WebFX. In particular, the professional writing offerings gave me a strong foundation that has enabled me to excel in my occupation. My English classes under teachers such as Dr. Becky and Professor Hinton taught me critical thinking skills and how to write persuasively. Dr. Danner's professional writing classes were critical for knowing how to apply these skills in a real-life work environment. I attribute my success in getting a writing job right after graduation, and then quickly moving up through the ranks to become an editor, to these classes. I'm confident that the internships I received through Misericordia and the skills I learned through these classes helped me achieve my current position. Thank you, Misericordia!"

"The English department was invaluable while pursuing both my BA in English as well as my Doctorate in Physical Therapy. The Pre-DPT/English track is one I would highly recommend as both majors pair together beautifully. While on the job hunt, my English degree was seen as a major strength to employers because they appreciated my ability to assess situations both analytically and intuitively. My English degree definitely helped me land my dream PT job."

“Misericordia is more than a school to me, it is a home. I have made life-long connections at Misericordia, from peers to faculty. Every member of the English Department challenged me to grow, academically and as a person, while providing the encouragement I needed to succeed. Their unfailing support has gotten me through tough new experiences at a time that can be very uncertain for many people. The knowledge I gained from Misericordia allows me to be confident in myself while pursuing a master's degree in the UK, a goal that my professors helped me to achieve.”

It has been a privilege to work with the English professors in a variety of settings – from classroom activities to Sigma Tau Delta events to summer Literature Camp, to name a few – and I am grateful for the ever-present support, encouragement, and guidance they continue to offer.

The professors are endlessly supportive and have always encouraged me to enhance my learning and experience in various ways such as provoking me to participate in academic conferences all over the world. I have also made some of the best friends I could ever imagine in the English department.
