    The capstone course for the English major, this course guides students through an advanced research process culminating in a senior essay. The first half of the course sketches a topic area, which though specific is not confined to a single period or author, and which lends itself to a variety of critical approaches. During the first half of the course students engage in intensive reading and discussion of a number of key texts in this topic area and, with the instructor's guidance, develop lines of inquiry, assemble an annotated bibliography, and articulate a proposal. During the second half of the course, students conduct their research and compose their essays. They then work together as an editorial board to finalize and publish their papers in print, CD-ROM, or Web site form and to make a formal presentation. (Open only to English majors.) Prerequisites: ENG 215, ENG 401, and all of the 300-level courses required for the major.
