A new study finds that of the 52 liberal arts colleges and universities most highly ranked by US News and World Report, only four require their English Lit majors to take a course in Shakespeare.

Years ago when I majored in English Lit, I had to take a course in Shakespeare, and I'm proud to say my alma mater still requires it. I also had to take a semester of Chaucer in the original Middle English, but it looks like that was dropped.
