From Mission Creek to Strange Creek, we'll consider the place and places of water in our daily lives. We'll visit our neighborhood creek a few times - as well as islands and oceans considered by contemporary writers. Along with our readings, discussion, writing exercises and short writing assignments focused on water, four essays are required, a profile; an artist's process; the process of creating an interpretation; and a five-element essay. We'll engage in peer response sessions as we revise our drafts. At least once during the semester, each student (as part of a pair or trio) will lead class discussion or make an oral presentation
