What I Read for My Bachelor's in English/Literature

This is long overdue! I'm a proud graduate of the University of South Florida (St. Petersburg campus), and I wanted to show you the majority of the books I read as part of my English BA. I chose the Literature & Cultural Studies track of the English degree at USF, and I LOVED it. I focused on Victorian literature and Shakespeare. I look back fondly at this magical time in my life when I discovered books and authors that would become my favorites, learned my passion for performing, and accepted that I wasn't interested in a "useful" degree. I could argue all day about why English degrees are useful, but you know what I mean. My grandfather used to say, "College is not a vocational school". I went to college to expand my mind. No, I didn't learn a trade or get on a specific track to a career, but my life and my soul are richer because of my studies.

What did you study? What do you want to study? Do you wish you'd changed your major? I changed mine twice!
