Megan O'Neill
Associate Professor of English
Megan O'Neill joined Stetson University's English Department as Director of the Writing Program in 1999. She teaches courses in writing, rhetoric, and grammar as part of her support for the university's General Education program, in addition to supporting the English major by offering a major authors course studying Romantic writer Samuel Taylor Coleridge. She has traveled the United States widely and is proud to have had mailing addresses in 13 states. In her infrequent spare time, she walks on the beach, watches Star Trek episodes, caters to three spoiled housecats, and dances the Argentine tango.
