The Department of World Languages & Literatures (WLL), formerly the Department of Modern Language & Comparative Literature (MLCL), comprises 38 full-time faculty members who teach a total of ten languages and literatures from East and South Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. While this makes for an exciting range of courses and scholarship, it also makes finding a name that fits the department challenging.
