Meet Sean Kelly: English Professor, Writing Center Director and This Year’s O’Hop Lecturer

Sean Kelly, professor of English, has been sharing his insights on 19th century American literature, African American literature, literary theory and composition with Wilkes students since he arrived on campus in 2008.

This academic year, he added two new roles to his resume. Kelly serves as director of the Writing Center, the spot on campus where students can go for help with all things writing. More recently, he was selected to deliver Wilkes University’s 2024 Paul A. O’Hop Final Word Lecture. His presentation, “Reading, Writing, and Wilkes University’s Mission of Liberal Education: Questioning AI’s Value as a Learning Tool,” will take place at 6 p.m. on Monday, April 29, in the Jean and Paul Adams Commons.
