In this course, required of students planning a creative writing concentration but open to all those interested, students explore the nature and significance of creative processes. Guest writers present their work and discuss the ways in which that work comes into being. Guests include writers in all genres and artists who use writing in socially significant ways. Students participate in a variety of exercises designed to develop voice, illuminate process, and create familiarity with a variety of formal possibilities. The final product of the course is a portfolio.
