Courses taught
ENGL 261
Creative Writing And Med Hum
Creative Writing and Medical Humanities explores a wide range of literature that draws us into a conversation about medicine, care, wellness, healing, spirituality, and the body. Through daily discussions and writing prompts, students will gain confidence in their ability to write creatively and concisely about these topics. We will read memoir, essay, poetry, and fiction, from a diverse range of authors who grapple with both the challenges and rewards of medicine. We will consider a variety of perspectives from patients, doctors, caregivers, and family members, and write creatively about our own experiences. This course will foreground both writing and discussion, and challenge students to consider how race, class, sex, gender, and cultural heritage affect individual and collective experiences of healthcare. Cross-list: MDHM 260. Repeatable for Credit.
