Exposition: Exploring Saint Louis

3 units

In this advanced composition course, students will craft thoughtful and stylistically engaging essays that explore St. Louis--its history, culture, politics, arts, industry, challenges, and opportunities. Our pieces will range from the formal and scholarly to the creative, experimental, and professional, allowing us to consider how audience and purpose shape our writing. Students will engage in regular critique of their own and others' writing, with attention to issues such as organization, clarity, sentence structure, and tone.
