The Writing Program was founded in 1977 to ensure that
Northwestern undergraduates have ample opportunities
to learn to write clearly and persuasively. Since then,
we have offered courses at every levelfrom introductory
to advancedand have worked with faculty across
the University to help their students become more effective
writers. We believe that clear writing and clear thinking
are integrally connected, and that the development of
writing skills is a practical endeavor that offers intellectual
and aesthetic rewards.
Writing Program courses are small and
personal. Our faculty offer rigorous instruction in
writing, but in a friendly, supportive setting. For

and faculty, please
