CRSN 100Writing Sustainabilities
What is the role of writing in the environmental justice movement? What is the role of art and narrative during times of global change? In this interdisciplinary creative nonfiction course, students explore the expansive and exciting genre of creative nonfiction. This course is structured as a writing workshop class, which means our central activity throughout the quarter will be writing nonfiction essays and sharing them with the class in a generative, community-oriented setting. No previous creative nonfiction writing experience is necessary, just a willingness to explore writing, take risks, and attend to the work of others with care.
