DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION The English department is committed to studying literature from a wide variety of perspectives. We celebrate the diversity of Pius’ student body and endeavor to design a curriculum which reflects the rich and deeply nuanced cultural and identity lenses of the students who study it.

Every year, the Pius XI English department offers a new thematic literary course which includes an international travel component. Here is our Gothic Literature class in Dublin, Ireland in Summer 2019. STUDY ABROAD
