Middlebury
Bread Loaf School of English
2013 Summer Programs
stablished in 1920, the Bread Loaf School of English (BLSE) stands beside the Language Schools and the
Bread Loaf Writers’ Conference as one of Middlebury College’s outstanding summer programs. The faculty
come from eminent colleges and universities across the U.S. and U.K. The curriculum includes an unusually
diverse blend of courses in literature and culture, pedagogy and literacy, creative writing, and theater arts. Our aim
is to produce innovative teachers and thinkers who, through the interpretation of literary and critical texts, are able
to engage in creative thought, write persuasive and original arguments, and, as relevant, use new technologies to
develop effective teaching and learning practices.
The program, tailored to K-12 teachers, runs for six weeks at four distinctive campuses: St. John’s College in
Santa Fe, New Mexico; the University of North Carolina at Asheville; Lincoln College, University of Oxford,
in England; and the Bread Loaf Mountain campus outside Middlebury, Vermont. Students may enroll for one or
more summers for continuing graduate education, or they may pursue a full program of study leading to the
Master of Arts or Master of Letters degree in English. The normal course load is two units per summer: each unit
carries three semester hours of graduate credit (the equivalent of 30 class hours). Degree candidates must attend the
Vermont campus at least once; they are encouraged to attend all four campuses. All Bread Loaf students may join
the Bread Loaf Teacher Network, our nationally visible, year-round professional development network.
