3.00 Credits
In this class, we will watch and discuss films important both to the portrayal of women onscreen and to the development of women as writers and directors. These portrayals, some positive, some negative, some more complicated than one word can express, can influence the ways in which we see ourselves and the ways in which we understand issues such as gender, power, and sex. In a more general way, this class will explore how students go about "reading" a film. Through study of selected films and readings, lectures, class discussion, and written assignments, you will learn to recognize and analyze film language (editing, cinematography, sound, special effects, etc.) and will be introduced to some major concepts in film studies. By the end of the course, students will have an understanding of the many ways films produce meaning and should be able to demonstrate your command of these basic skills to critically interpret those meanings through deep analysis. Films will include, among others: Thelma and Louise (1991), Adam's Rib (1949), Eve's Bayou (1997), and Vertigo (1958).

This introductory course explores the way writers invent original pieces of creative writing, focusing specifically on the act of invention. Students will be asked to observe the world around them and make writing a daily habit. Students will also engage in idea generating activities and learn how to discover meaning in raw prose. The act of observing and recording will lead the student to not only write more polished pieces of fiction, poetry, drama, and creative nonfiction, but it will also lead the student to become a better observer and thinker, important goals of a liberal arts education. Reading assignments will encourage students to read outside of their favorite genres and styles and to respond to that reading in meaningful ways.
