English

The English Society is a club at La Salle which promotes literature and writing, creating a network of both English majors and non-majors for the purpose of fostering literary impulses. The Society involves the greater La Salle community as well as its outside community by sharing writing and reading skills, networking with English majors and alumni, and organizing events intended to build an interest in literature.

The Grimoire publishes one sixty-four page anthology of the best poetry, prose, and art submitted by persons from the La Salle University community each semester. The Grimoire exists to provide an outlet for creative individuals and an opportunity to gain recognition in the larger La Salle University community.

Some of the other clubs and organizations that our students enjoy include:

• The Collegian (La Salle’s newspaper)
• The Explorer (La Salle’s yearbook)
• Association of Women in Communications
• The Histories (La Salle’s historical magazine)
• Public Relations Society of America
• American Marketing Association

Travel study courses are semester-long classes with a 10- to 15-day travel component built into the syllabus. Through these courses, people, places, and concepts that student have learned about in the classroom are brought to life and given context. Students broaden their worldview, gain a heightened understanding of other cultures, and learn about the responsibilities of global leadership.

Recent trips have taken students and faculty to Germany, Austria, Czech Republic, France, Ireland, Greece, Spain, Italy, Brazil, Chile, Guatemala, Argentina, Turkey, Israel, China, India, Vietnam, Cuba, Japan, the British Virgin Islands, and Denmark.

From co-ops to internships to future employers big and small, each is readily accessible to provide you with real-life learning beyond a class on campus.
