Playwriting courses are offered through The Arts and can be combined with any major or minor program in Literary Studies. In the course, students employ a series of exercises to develop characters, settings, scenes, plot, and eventually a one-act play. Students read and discuss their plays in class during the writing and revising process; they also analyze a variety of dramatic texts and other sources to discover individual voice and understand narrative structure.
