The English Department at Cuyamaca College provides students in the local community an opportunity to develop skills required for effective communication: analytical reading, critical thinking, attention to detail, and the ability to work in diverse teams. The department encourages students to engage deeply with literature and nonfiction texts (written, visual, audio, etc) as well as other forms of cultural production, and to account for how those texts inform our ideologies, norms, and values.
