The English Department would like to offer a course for the spring semester, which would incorporate travel to England in the week of March 5th (Spring Break). Current Saint Peter's students are encouraged to register for the class and alumni, colleagues, and friends are welcome to join us on the trip.
We'd like to get an idea of how many people are interested in the class and/or trip, and how much they are willing/able to pay for the excursion. We're in the process of negotiating an itinerary with some travel agencies. If you're interested, please email [email protected].

“Today in Saint Peter’s History”. 53 years ago today on April 12, 1969 Poet Allen Ginsberg and his father Louis presented a joint poetry reading. The Pavan, the College's literary magazine, sponsored the program.
Months later when The Pavan was briefly suppressed by the administration for profanity, the younger Ginsberg sent a letter to the Board of Trustees decrying the action.
