As he nears the end of his first year as chair of the Department of Literature and Language at East Tennessee State University, Dr. Daniel Westover is pleased with what the department has been able to accomplish despite the challenges of the pandemic.
These accomplishments include bringing online a new technical and professional writing minor, a new Japanese major concentration, and updates to both the English major and minor. The department is also nearing the launch of a fully online B.A. in English, and there are developments in the works that will make Spanish language instruction available to more students.

Now in its 25th year, National Poetry Month was introduced in 1996 by the American Academy of Poets to increase awareness and appreciation of poetry throughout the United States.
