Creative Writing Senior Seminar

Course No. WRHC 490  Credits: 3.0

In the Creative Writing Senior Seminar, students will work closely with one another in workshop-style critique as they complete senior projects in writing. Projects may include work in fiction, poetry, creative nonfiction, screenwriting, graphic narratives, digital forms, hybrid genres, multimedia writing, cross-genre texts, and other forms. Students will write and revise a substantial portfolio of original work, offer their peers meaningful feedback focused on literary craft, produce a critical introduction that situates their work in the discipline, and give a public reading of their work. They will also complete activities that support professional development, literary community, and connections between writing and other arts.
