Title
1988: Multiple Creative Writing Courses Offered By Genre
Description
The 1988 college catalog signifies the first year multiple creative writing courses are offered with specific genre focuses. Introduction to Creative Writing taught by Tony Abbott is introduced at the 200-level. Meanwhile, new additions to the 300-level English courses include Writing Prose: Nonfiction, Writing Poetry, Writing Fiction, and Writing Plays. The catalog specifies that each of these courses will be taught during semesters “when a professor in residence or a visiting professor of writing focuses on” that genre (Davidson College Catalog 1988).
