Spring courses on Screenwriting and Fiction

ByGWEnglish

If you are a current undergraduate and have not yet submitted your application for our special “Screenwriting” (Jason Filardi) or “Fiction” (Edward P. Jones) courses (English 182 for spring 2009), please do so immediately. We hope to announce decisions by the end of the week.

Due to a glitch, several people were allowed to register for both these courses already. If you were one of them, please drop the course right away. They are open only via departmentally vetted, competitive enrollment.
