Bachelor of Arts in English and World Literature:Creative Writing

Comments about Bachelor of Arts in English and World Literature:Creative Writing - At the institution - Claremont - CA - California

• Course description
  We believe that student work has meaningful literary and intellectual value, and we foster a supportive community of writers among our students. Through writing exercises, workshops, and intensive reading, students begin to take creative risks in
  their own writing. The aim of the writer is not to make a precise replica of experience, not to degrade the world in such a way, nor its ever-changing nature, but to build a door. If we are lucky, our readers walks through that door, arriving at a
  room we could never have predicted alone.
