English Society, A.A. presents our 2026 Annual Journal, offering reminiscence and memories of the past year. Inside is a chest filled with trinkets—pieces of our souls and work steeped into its pages.

Also contained is our Freshmen Guide, a guiding hand for our newcomers. We hope it will help calm the storm of a new chapter, assisting with course selection, finding paths across campus, and quelling worries about studying English.

If you are interested in flipping through the pages of the Annual Journal, you can find copies at:
