Freshman Seminars
Writing Program faculty teach a number
of freshman seminars and function as freshman advisers.
These courses are organized thematically. They introduce
students to a specific dimension of writing as a field,
such as autobiography or creative non-fiction, while
they simultaneously help students improve their own
writing skills.
Following are a sampling of freshman seminars
taught by WP faculty.
