The poetry concentration senior capstone project integrates the skills and perspectives learned through the electives in the concentration and practical experiences. Students design and complete an independent project and may, for example, write a chapbook of poetry or a portfolio of translations; create an integrated packet of curriculum materials for teachers of poetry in a particular grade (K?12); or curate an online exhibit of book arts or some part of the poetic process, such as drafts. Students work with the instructor, and in some cases an additional adviser, to shape and implement the project, and receive peer critique, as well, over the capstone semester.
Permission Instructor/Chair. Not open to first-years
