By the way, the Comp Lit major isn't super foreign language based. Assuming you take one set of your literature requirements in English, you take the other few in another language, and the rest of the reqs are taught in English! English isn't necessarily more versatile, though might I ask, versatile for what? The two majors are very close in that they both study literature. I'm switching to Comp Lit because I think their department course offerings are incredibly fascinating and I get a greater variety of classes. Frankly, I don't think I need college to help me understand the literature of a language which I have been studying for years; I do, however, need college to give me that sort of foundation in the literatures of other languages.
