I'm impressed that they have such an elective in your program! They don't even have electives like that in the program that the Young Lady is taking, and it's considered a pretty kickass program. But then it's a magnet program in a public school, so there are still limits to what specialties thay can offer.
I've been amazingly resistant to English literature ... I wanted to major in chemistry, but I had some serious issues with math, and had to switch programs. I spent the rest of my first college career avoiding all the typical lit classes, and taking as many writing classes and other oddball things (Anglo-Saxon, Beowulf in the original, Science Fiction, etc.) as I could. Now I may be ready to take another look at some of it. (My second college career was went I went back and got a technical degree at night school.)
