The PhD program in English was recently featured in an article from the American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS). The article discussed the recent changes that the program's faculty have made to the curriculum. Professor Ulka Anjaria is quoted in the article, which notes, "In all, the Brandeis English PhD offers a model of a more equitable and democratic English PhD––one that, Anjaria says, will 'be seen not as something elitist, but rather something that trains students to be humanistically-oriented contributing citizens of the country'––no matter what professions those students go on to do."
