    <div class="html-content">The deadline to apply for our faculty-led study abroad program to Amsterdam with Dr. Christine Mallinson has been extended for 2 more weeks (March 2, 2018). <a href="https://goabroad.umbc.edu/index.cfm?FuseAction=Programs.ViewProgram&amp;Program_ID=33499" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Apply ASAP to reserve a space</a>.<div><br>
    <h3>This is the only faculty-led application this summer that is still accepting students!</h3><div><span><br></span></div><div><span>This course explores how the English language developed over time and came to its current position of global usage. The class examines how, historically, English has been influenced by other languages and, more recently, how it has influenced other languages globally. It explores the pluralization of English into Englishes—its development from one imperial language into various nativized varieties of English around the world. As such, this course emphasizes the historical, political, and ideological issues of globalization, nativization, post-colonialism, and standardization. </span></div></div></div>
