Hello and welcome back to the Language Literature and Philosophy blog. Our goal is to keep students informed about LLP events. Last week, we had a couple of events involving our department. The first was a mock interview session hosted by the Career Development Center.  As an English major, I am always looking for other ways to market myself with my degree other than just teaching or writing. Having the opportunity to meet with companies like Lockheed Martin and Regions was amazing. Also, the Film Club is hosted a viewing of “12 Years A Slave” in light of Black History Month. I know a few of my professors were giving extra credit for those who went and watched the movie, so I hope some of you took advantage of that.

            There is more to come this week. On Thursday we have a playwright master class with Kia Corthron. This event will not be public, so be on the look out for pictures and videos on our Facebook  and Twitter page. The film club is hosting a viewing of “V for Vendetta” Friday at 11am in Humanities; I definitely look forward to chatting with Dr. Wise about her movie choices for this month. Our last event of the week is a Pupil to Professional workshop on Interviewing and Career Fair strategies.  That workshop will be held Feb. 19^th at 2:30 p.m. in Humanities 113. We hope to see you at our events this week and for those of you who came last week, we hope to see you again!

Until next time, 

Alexis Brooks
