GLS 8010 - The Essay

We believe, to quote Donald Murray, Pulitzer-Prize winning journalist and poet, that “writing is the fundamental tool of the intellectual life.” All MALS students take a course on the essay, which will instruct them on the techniques of writing the critical and personal essays. This course will help to prepare students for their final capstone project and will provide a vehicle to carry the ideas and values they explore in the Graduate School of Liberal Studies outside the academy and into the real world.
