Stern said the department’s two introductory survey courses in English and American literature did not make use of its faculty’s expertise, as few professors could teach these courses.
It is an English Department after all. I think it is wonderful to study other literary traditions, since they are all beautiful, and great fiction always exposes people--including self-deceived moral posturers--for what they are. But an English Department that has "few professors who could teach" courses in English and American literature? Really?
