Christopher Eiswerth ’08 - “Miles to Go”: An English Major’s Obligation and Katie Jarman ’16 - From Prose to Practice: An English Major's Role in Translating Education Research
Dickinson English alumni have all sorts of interesting jobs. Each spring, the Cogan Alumni Fellowship brings a graduate to campus to share life experience and career advice with current students. The residency was named in honor of Eleanor Cogan (1909-2011), who took 52 classes at Dickinson, beginning when she was 70. Mrs. Cogan's adventurous spirit and lifelong curiosity inspires our choice of Cogan speakers.
