Abstract | Argues against the practice of designing a major or concentration in English as a gumbo of courses thrown together to add up to required credit hours. Presents five reasons why the "gumbo" model of picking and choosing courses to suit students' taste is not an effective one for students, or helpful to other constituents to whom educators want to communicate the value of majoring in the discipline.
