Minnesota boasts its lakes, its music, and keeps urging us to see it as more “north” than “midwest.” Got it. But what does it truly mean to be “North,” and how does this distinction influence how others see our state, and how we see ourselves? In this course we’ll explore the idea of “North” as advertised by many in the upper Midwest, and we’ll also consider images and ideas about our state and others neighboring us as seen in literature and film — both by those who call the 32nd state home, and those who just visit for a while. Possible authors may include F. Scott Fitzgerald, Patricia Hampl, Linda Hogan, Danez Smith, and Kao Kalia Yang and possible audio sources include work from Bob Dylan, Atmosphere, and Prince. The writing load for this course is a minimum of 15 pages of formal revised writing. This course satisfies the Writing Across the Curriculum Writing Intensive requirement.
