Guild of English Scholars
The Guild of English Scholars is a club that “exists to integrate our shared Christian faith with scholarship of English language and literature through acts of service, the establishment of community, and the exhibition of excellence.” The Guild is proud to be the Alpha Zeta Theta branch of Sigma Tau Delta.
​
In previous years, the Guild has hosted a variety of “Englishy” events including poetry readings, an annual Christmas party, networking events, and an underground film society. Each Spring, the Guild hosts the Zeitgeist conference where students submit and present their creative and academic writing.
