PROGRAM INFORMATION
The BFA in Creative Writing is designed to develop students’ skills in fiction, poetry, and other writing genres as well as preparing them for advanced degree programs such as MFAs. The program is a combination of writing-intensive workshops, reading-intensive background courses, and on-site studio practice sessions in which students receive class credit for working on their writing alone, with peers, and/or with the guidance of instructors. Students work together to produce the undergraduate literary magazine Main Squeeze. Creative Writing also sponsors the Emergent Forms reading series and West Wind Review, SOU’s literary journal.
