英语
从2022年开始
As an alumna (‘09) who returned to join the faculty, I can attest to the delight of being a student AND a professor in Covenant’s 英语 Department. At the center of that delight, for me, is our collective acknowledgement that human imagination is an important aspect of God’s image in us, and that, therefore, literature of all sorts can direct our loves back to God--the original author of all things. This makes for a congenial and energetic community of thinkers, readers, and writers, as we seek to glorify and enjoy God through our diverse literary pursuits.
