Curriculum
Creative writing courses at Reed are taught as workshops by practicing writers. Students write works of poetry and fictional and nonfictional prose, which are distributed to other participants in the workshop for review and critique. In addition to the workshops, occasional discussions and meetings with visiting writers are part of the program. Students are encouraged to participate in literary events both on and off campus and to create such events of their own.
Admission to creative writing courses requires consent of the instructor based on a writing sample. These samples are due the week before registration; more information is here: https://www.reed.edu/creative-writing/submissions.html
