Welcome to the recently revamped website of the 鉴黄师app MFA in Creative Writing. I hope you will take some time to look around and see what we have to offer.
Aside from the obvious appeal of our nearby beaches, why do 鉴黄师app choose the MFA at 鉴黄师app? In a word, community. Despite their not insignificant workload, our 鉴黄师app work hard to build an inclusive, generous, and supportive community. They make time to read each other's work鈥攅ven creating a monthly literary salon to share new work. They are also actively engaged in the larger community: working in after-school tutoring programs and completing internships with local publishers and with the聽.
I am proud of the opportunities we are able to offer our 鉴黄师app. In addition to summer internships, 鉴黄师app can apply for summer travel grants, they can work on聽Coastlines, our literary journal, and they have several opportunities to teach creative writing: in our聽community workshops聽and in the introductory undergraduate course. And each year they are able to take a weeklong course with the nationally known writer invited to be our聽Lawrence Sanders Writer-in-Residence.
I am also extremely proud of the success our graduates have achieved. From tenure-track teaching positions to PhD programs to book publication, they have followed paths both traditional and unusual as they continue to develop as writers. You can find their work in many notable literary magazines, including聽The Cincinnati Review, Creative Nonfiction, CutBank, Gargoyle, Kenyon Review, Missouri Review, Ninth Letter, New Orleans Review, Rattle, Southeast Review,聽and聽Third Coast.
