The second option would be specialization entirely within one specific field of literature. Possibilities might include concentration on comparative literature, genre studies, such as the novel or the narrative, or translations of various areas of foreign literature.
"This approach opens up possibilities of broader and different approaches to literature." Bloomfield said.
The third specialization available to concentrators would be a writing-oriented program. "The program wouldgive many more opportunities, although it would not necessarily mean more courses," Bloomfield said. He added that the writing program would probably have to be limited, since the department is short of funds and manpower.
Each of the options, according to the proposal, would be offered both as an honors and a non-honors concentration.
The committee's proposals also include an expansion of pass/fail options for both honors and non-honors concentrators. However, non-honors majors would still have greater freedom in this area.
