Courses Recently Taught

This open-enrollment course gives students the opportunity to develop as creative writers and readers through a series of writing assignments and workshops. In addition to poetry and short fiction, areas of focus may include creative essay, playwriting, screenwriting and multimedia works. Students conclude the course by revising and polishing a selection of their original work as a final portfolio. This counts toward the emphasis in creative writing and the creative practice requirement for the major. Seats are reserved for each class year. Students may not take this course in the first semester of their first year.
