It's cool, but not for here

Semiotics happens to be a very interesting topic and especially in English literature class. It happens to be integral to understand the nature of words that have symbolic and significant meaning to reveal the numerous layers of meaning that particular word has in a language. However I feel that it is almost useless to learn about the different theories of semiotics in a class such as ours. I believe this class is geared towards learning about literature and reading numerous texts that display the true beauty of literature, of which it has been until now. However learning the science behind semiotics and the different theorists, and reading almost 120 pages on the topic seems rather pointless for our discussion. If this class was part of the Linguistics & Communications department, that would be a totally different story.
