We have at Memorial a two-course sequence, the first a literature with
composition (45 per class), the second a choice: fiction, drama, poetry
(with emphasis on writing) or a writing course (kept at 30, though the
others may go to 45). Only four regular faculty offer to teach the writing
course, so graduates students are pressed into service, usually without
any interest or experience in this kind of teaching, and many students
wishing to take it have to take one of the others.
