MUSKINGUM

Muskingum University's proud heritage began in 1837, when Ohio was an infant state and covered wagons were bringing adventurous settlers westward over the newly completed National Road through New Concord. The University's Native American name, sometimes mispronounced and often misspelled, is a source of pride and an enduring link to the history of frontier America "beyond the Alleghenies."... As our department moves further into the second decade of the 21st century, we are mindful of new challenges that students face in a world compressed by technology, information, and communication. We want to be a department that is savvy about change and effective in helping students to understand shifting global perspectives and issues of diversity, as well as practical changes in print culture and academic/professional concentrations in English.
