Pratt, Linda Ray
ADE Bulletin, n131 p27-33 Spr 2002

Suggests English professors need to confront the growing irrelevance of English to the major developments in many institutions. Suggests the future of English may depend in part on what professors define, and defend, as the value of its study. (RS)
