ENGL 480 - Lit & Writing Internship: CEL

Unit(s): 4

This Community Engaged Learning (CEL) course enables students with a background and interest in literature and writing to complete an internship in the Bay Area that focuses on community engagement. Through engagement with community organizations, we study how writing/publishing/reading play important roles in the creation, publication, and appreciation of literary texts. In the classroom, this course focuses on the role of writing and publishing both on the micro level (your internships) and on the macro level (the world). We also talk about the writing community-what it means to participate in a community of writers and writing-how publishing, writing, and reading are vehicles for justice.
