POETRY AT A GLANCE

Since courses are listed by department rather than subject matter, it’s difficult for students and advisors to tease out the full array of poetry-related courses available in any given semester.

We’ve completed a list of Fall ’08 courses that have a substantial focus on poetry, both those offered in English and in foreign languages. This course list will be updated prior to advising periods each semester.
