Happy Friday, everyone! First, we have one reminder for this week: submissions to Poetry Northwest‘s “Emerging Writers” and “Essays/Reviews/Interviews” categories, as well as the PNW James Welch Prize, will all close next Friday, February 15. (Click here for details.)

In an earlier post last week, we briefly mentioned DePaul’s Certificate in Teaching English in Two-Year Colleges; today, we’d like to highlight this opportunity for all our grad students (including those of you who might be thinking of attending grad school at DePaul). If you choose to pursue this certificate, all 16 hours of course credit for the certificate will also count towards your MALP, MAWP, or MFA degree. The Certificate Program also includes an internship for teaching in a Chicago-area two-year college—which all English grad students are able to apply for, even if they choose not to pursue the full certificate. Check out the flyers below for full details on this certificate and internship!

If you’d like to discuss your future plans and whether this certificate or internship might fit into them, please contact Prof. Michele Morano at mmorano@depaul.edu.
