Creative Writing Minor
Students develop creative-thinking skills that emphasize the value of innovation and collaboration. Creative writing classrooms are supportive communities that foster the development of diverse voices, each member committed to helping one another improve as writers, readers, and creative-thinkers. In composing original stories, scripts, and poems, students learn to apply literary techniques used by classical and contemporary authors. Hands-on experiences in publishing are available, as well as opportunities to work on (or be published in) the student journal, The Catalyst.
