First sentences of critical essay

English departments in many different universities are often varied entities. Within the department are creative writers; those who stress literature and critical responses therein; rhetoric and communication enthusiasts; and scholars specializing in language theory. Though separate entities, they all fall under the umbrella of English, and thus dichotomies between any combination of the four can create problems within the department. It is essential that each subsection of the English department be represented equally in the curriculum and perhaps even integrated for a more fulfilling and complete academic experience.
