Class description

In BCUSP 135 the main project is the production of a research-based piece of writing appropriate to a university setting. During our time together assignments and activities also include several shorter essays, in-class presentations and library sessions. We will emphasize the importance of drafting and revision. Our essays and reading will center on issues of food. This topic is purposely broad so that you have the chance to discover and explore your own more particular and specific interests.
