William E. Graddy, PhD

Professor of English, 1973
BA, MA, PhD, Southern Illinois University
In recent years Dr. Graddy’s professional concerns have centered on course revision and improved methods of evaluation. From this work one new course emerged (on Milton’s Paradise Lost and Wordsworth’s Prelude), as well as an array of new assignments, instructional materials, and teaching modules in Critical Writing, Studies in Poetry, Shakespeare, and Contemporary Critical Theory. He was an invited panelist for an honors colloquium at Northeastern Illinois University and a presenter at the Deerfield Hellenic American Academy’s “Literary Evening Honoring Novelist Nikos Kokonis.” His essay on that author’s Arcadia, My Arcadia, was reprinted in the Greek-American Review.
