English Department Teas are informal, drop-in events for students to socialize, meet faculty and staff, ask advising questions, and learn about topics of interest. Tea and snacks will be provided. Please feel free to stop in to grab food or say hello between classes or commitments—there’s no expectation to stay the whole hour!
