WRITING MINOR (Department of English)<br />
Description: The Writing minor allows students to practice the craft<br />
of writing in various forms and genres. In the minor, students will<br />
participate in a broad range of workshop-based courses, including<br />
poetry, fiction, creative nonfiction, journalism, legal writing and<br />
business writing. Some courses will focus on creating original,<br />
artistic work, and others will be geared toward preparing students for<br />
careers involving professional writing or for graduate study.<br />
In the creative writing courses, students will master narrative forms<br />
and learn how to structure their own experiences into resonant<br />
fiction, creative nonfiction and poetry. In the journalism courses,<br />
students will learn how to gather appropriate information, ask<br />
pertinent questions and write hard news articles and features. In the<br />
academic and professional writing courses, students will practice<br />
original research, argumentation and advanced rhetorical strategies.<br />
All courses will be conducted as workshops, so students will<br />
regularly present their writing for close review and critique by their<br />
professors and peers. This emphasis on close reading, as well as on<br />
writing, will strengthen their critical abilities. The Writing minor will<br />
allow students to hone their writing skills and to find their own<br />
unique voices as they learn to negotiate the demands of specific<br />
audiences and genres.<br />
