Prior to coming to Emory to complete his undergrad, Solomon lived in Seattle for about half his life. At Emory, he plans to major in International Studies with a minor in Global Health. Solomon’s primary language is English but he’s also fluent in Spanish and knows enough Korean to make his elders think he’s fluent (when he’s really not). Sometimes it seems as if Solomon’s life circulates around eating, which explains why he loves trying new foods. Additionally, he’ll always free up time to grab boba, watch movies, ball, or head to the gym with anyone.

Welcome to our ENG 101 website!
This course surveys the English language’s roots in colonialism, racism, warfare, and epistemic violence. Tasked to suspend presumptions about communication, students will encounter various modes of thinking and writing about language/violence while practicing effective argumentation and curating academic blogs. The act of writing, we will observe, can perpetuate violence or defy the `powers that be’.
