Writing Our Heritages

Prerequisite: ENGL 102 In this course students investigate their family stories, migrations and heritages using field, archival, genealogical and library research, as well as oral histories, family photos and artifacts, and draw from these materials as well as their own life experiences to compose a variety of writing projects. Students also read essays and memoirs that explore the connections among identity, family history, landscape and heritage. Offered every other year.
