Undergraduate Poetry Minor
The poetry minor is intended for students who want to study poetry writing as an adjunct to their major in another field. The poetry minor provides students with a broad understanding of the aesthetic, intellectual, and political issues of poetry as a craft. It will develop not only their skill as artists but also their appreciation of poetry as part of the larger humanities curriculum.
