Scope and content

This collection consists the printed run of the Expositor magazine, published by the English Department. The Expositor was first published in 1989 by the English Department at the initiative of Professor Peter Balbert. Through 2015 it provided a space for academic writing and prose. Beginning in 2016 the members of the English Department responsible for the publication consulted with the Mellon Initiative for Undergraduate Research in the Humanities and made the decision to change the scope of the journal to focus on humanities disciplines.
