Essential Knowledge for Spring 2010 Registration
First and foremost, please see your advisor prior to registration. For many reasons, it is important that you receive sage advice and that we keep your records updated. English faculty will be contacting their advisees by e-mail and/or posting sign-up sheets outside their offices, so please be sure to sign up.
1. Registration for the spring 2010 semester begins Tuesday, November 3, and runs through Friday, November 13. Please check your PAWS account to determine when you are eligible to register.
2. If you don't know who your advisor is, then find out. Your advisor should be listed on your PAWS account. If you can't find it there, check the list on the bulletin board outside the English office. If you aren't listed there, please inquire in the English Department office or call the secretary at x2298. Note: If your PAWS account state Professor Graham as your advisor, please make an appointment to see Professor McCauley or Professor Carney. Professor Graham will be on sabbatical.
3. We request that prior to meeting with your advisor, you review the requirements for your program (posted here under "English Programs"), check the courses offered, and devise a tentative schedule for Spring, including back-up courses in case your preferred choices are filled. Also, please bring your Academic Requirement Report to your advisement meeting so that you and your advisor may assess your status both in your major program and in your college-wide requirements. You can download your Academic Requirement Report on PAWS.
4. As usual, English Department courses are listed under several different headings on PAWS. LIT and JPW courses can predictably be found under "Literature " and "Journalism and Professional Writing," respectively. However, be aware that you will find LNG courses under "English Language," EED courses under "English Education," and graduate courses under "English." The prefix for Creative Writing is CWR, and those courses will be found under "Creative Writing."
5. If you have any questions that your advisor cannot answer, contact Professor McCauley or Professor Carney.
