ENGWRT 1955 - ENGLISH WRITING CAPSTONE


Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
Capstone course for English Writing majors. In this course-which should be taken during a student's final semester-writing majors receive a complete immersion into the writing life. Students prepare a publishable chapbook-length manuscript in their chosen genres. Students share an intensive reading list and do close readings of the texts. Students participate in readings, both on campus and off, and are featured during the week-long Writers Festival and the monthly Voices reading series. The course is workshop-driven, with a focus on developing a supportive literary community. Students share new and revised work each week and provide extensive feedback on each other's work. Visiting authors provide additional expertise and connect students with the broader literary world.
