To complete an English minor, you must take five English courses (15 credits) numbered 2000 or higher.  At least one of these courses must come from the British/Irish literature offerings (3000-level courses, as well as some other courses—check with an advisor), and at least one course must come from the American literature offerings (4000-level courses, as well as some other courses—check with an advisor).  The other courses may be literature courses, courses that focus primarily on writing and rhetoric (those numbered 2000-2099), or both.
