English

The Use and Abuse of the Oxford Comma

By Grace Long

Grace Long is a Senior English major at Millersville University. With a particular interest in linguistics and literature, Grace’s goal in life is to publish books for the world. This is Grace’s first-ever publication, but hopefully not her last. Though not a professional writer, this publication is a great chance for Grace to see the publication process from the side of a creator. Made in Millersville is a fantastic opportunity to both experience the publication process but also share Grace’s love for literature and linguistics with her peers.
