Street art—including graffiti, murals, and other installations in public space—provides expressive avenues for marginalized voices, shapes urban space, and promotes competing visions of community development. In contrast to art that is created for museums or the commercial art market, street art is uniquely positioned to engage with social issues from a critical perspective. This class will involve an analysis of street art projects from the United States, situated in comparison with projects from around the world. Topics to explored include the history of street art over time (from its origins in graffiti to contemporary mural festivals); the impetus for street art in communities in the USA and globally; models for creating, preserving, and presenting street art; the institutionalization of street art; street art as it relates to diversity and inclusion; and, ultimately, the potential for street art to play a role in social change.

This course will explore the contemporary literary scene in the Upper Midwest. It will examine both the conventions and innovations practiced by writers working now in the Twin Cities and beyond, focusing on what makes their work unique, urgent, and, ultimately, Midwestern. The larger idea we will be asking of these writers as well as of ourselves is "What does it mean to be Midwestern and/or Minnesotan"? We will focus on a diverse spectrum of writers, potentially including Michael Kleber-Diggs, Louise Erdrich, Heid Erdrich, Marlon James, Peter Geye, Kao Kalia Yang, Ty Chapman, Stephen Graham Jones and Ashley Shelby. This course satisfies both an Integration in the Humanities requirement and a WAC Writing Intensive requirement.

Short stories, because of their compression and intensity, offer lively plots and constant surprises. To the delight of readers everywhere, American authors provide a wellspring of tales that uncover our past, define our present, and speak to our future. In keeping with our diverse American heritage, stories have been chosen from a broad cross-section of literary and cultural traditions. Alongside canonical authors such as Nathaniel Hawthorne, Ernest Hemingway, and F. Scott Fitzgerald, we’ll read the works of Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, Wakako Yamauchi, Kate Chopin, Eudora Welty, Ray Bradbury, and others, examining how these diverse voices diverge from, resist, and transform the traditional American short story canon. This course satisfies a WAC Writing to Learn requirement and an Integrations in the Humanities requirement.; Please note that ENGL 201 is non-repeatable; students wishing to take a second 200-level Texts in Conversation course will need to register for ENGL 202, 203, or 204.

Writing Intensive
This course explores the genre of noir in both film and literature beginning chronologically in post-World War II America, exploring McCarthyism and Hollywood blacklisting, as well as women's changing roles during and after the war. This background will provide a basis for the success of film noir with American audiences. Texts used early in the course are often those adapted into film (James M. Cain’s Double Indemnity and Raymond Chandler’s The Big Sleep). Emphasis in film is placed on the visual techniques used to create the aesthetic of film noir. As filmmakers fled Germany and Austria in the 1930s to work in Hollywood, techniques from German expressionist film helped to visually convey feelings of alienation, obsession, and instability fundamental to the genre (for example, Fritz Lang’s The Big Heat, Billy Wilder’s Double Indemnity, and Otto Preminger’s Laura). The second half of the course will focus on the genre of noir in contemporary literature and film. Cinematic examples may include Devil in a Blue Dress, Memento, Mulholland Drive. Literary texts may include those written by Walter Mosley, Megan Abbott, and S. A. Cosby. Please note that ENGL 202 is non-repeatable; students wishing to take a second 200-level Texts in Conversation course will need to register for ENGL 201, 203, or 204.

How do global politics influence our desire to explore space? How does space exploration impact our theological viewpoints of the universe? What roles might nation-states and corporations play in future space endeavors? Focusing on the human yearning to explore space, as well as current efforts to put humans on Mars in the near future, this class will attempt to answer these questions by examining a variety of literary forms including fiction, science fiction, poetry, nonfiction prose, and biography. Likely works to be studied include Tracy K. Smith’s LIFE ON MARS, Mary Doria Russell’s THE SPARROW, and Andy Weir's THE MARTIAN.

For centuries, people have gathered around campfires or drawing-room hearths to tell tales of ghosts, ghouls, hauntings, and horror. Why are we perpetually drawn to these narratives of dread and anxiety? What aspects of culture, or perceived elemental forces beneath culture, conjure up stories that evoke the pleasurable feeling of being afraid? This course considers overlaps of fear and pleasure, the present and the past, the domestic and the foreign, the sanctioned and the sinful, in an overview of that strikingly influential genre: the Gothic. Emerging in the tumultuous final decades of the eighteenth century, with violent revolutions abroad and simmering discord “at home,” Gothic literature in the U.K. can be traced down through the Victorian nineteenth century as a genre in constant tension with the dominant mores of the society that produced it. How did women writers of the Gothic imaginatively grapple with the constraints of male-dominated institutions? How might the familiar haunted houses and landscapes of the Gothic suggest that the sins of the past maintain a choking hold on the present? Why do tales of the supernatural and elemental often seem to look outward nervously, to the faraway possessions of the British Empire, as they remain bound up in the home? These questions and more will be considered as we read short and longer texts by authors such as Mary Shelley, Emily and Charlotte Brontë, Sheridan Le Fanu, Robert Louis Stevenson, Bram Stoker, Marie Corelli, and more. As we read about the past, we will also look ahead to recent books and movies to explore how the anxieties of the Gothic still haunt us today. This course satisfies an Integrations in the Humanities requirement, the Global Perspectives requirement, and a WAC Writing Intensive requirement. Please note that ENGL 203 is non-repeatable; students wishing to take a second 200-level Texts in Conversation course will need to register for ENGL 201, 202, or 204.

“Man is not what he thinks he is, he is what he hides.” French novelist Andre Malraux suggests that those who lie are deceiving themselves. Throughout world history people have kept secrets and deliberately lied for their own gain or simply for the thrill of knowing they have the power to deceive. Are there consequences for deliberate acts of deception? In this course, we will analyze how various international writers explore this human characteristic and discuss what we can learn about ourselves by considering the theme of lies and deception in global literature. Possible texts include: THE ADVENTURES OF SHERLOCK HOLMES by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, THE LIGHT BETWEEN OCEANS by M.L. Stedman, Patrick Shanley's DOUBT, and WHITE IVY by Susie Yang. This course satisfies an Integrations in the Humanities requirement, the Global Perspectives requirement, and a WAC Writing Intensive requirement.

How did the modern warfare of World War I change those who fought and those who stayed at home? Why did so many of the best American artists flee to Paris? How did the traditionalism and stability of the 1950s lead to the radicalism and rebellion of the 60s? How has technology, from the typewriter to the internet, reshaped literature? Such questions will be explored in a chronological framework though extensive readings in American literature from the beginning of the twentieth century to the present. Threaded throughout the literature are themes such as progress and innovation, war, the “lost generation,” the New Woman, race, and conformity and individuality. This course fulfills the Historical Perspectives requirement in the English major. Prerequisite: ENGL 106, 121, or 190.

The core of our study will center around works of 20th century world literature that might be best called existential – existential for the ways in which they address questions about human agency, authenticity, responsibility, and what constitutes a meaningful life. Toward that end, we will also study precursors of existential literature, beginning with such 18th century writers as Voltaire, then move forward in time to Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, Ibsen and Nietzsche, before settling into such key 20th century figures as Freud, Kafka, Pirandello, Camus, Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, Hannah Arendt, and Clarice Lispector. This course satisfies both an Integrations in the Humanities requirement and the Global Perspectives core requirement, as well as the WAC Writing to Learn requirement. Prerequisite: ENGL 106, 121, or 190. NOTE: This course was formerly titled The Modern Tradition.

Narrative Medicine Minor Appr
Writing to learn
Increasingly, education for nurses, physicians, and other healthcare professionals includes the practices of reading literature, writing reflectively, and engaging in role-play to learn how to care for patients (and for themselves). This is sometimes called narrative medicine. By focusing on stories (of the patient, the healthcare professional, and the cultures and systems in which both live) and therefore humanizing the often-impersonal world of the healthcare system, it improves the quality of care for patients and reduces burnout among healthcare professionals. In this course we will engage in practices of narrative medicine, reading and writing about literature as a means of understanding ourselves and others. The texts we'll read illuminate questions about pain and illness, empathy and the training of healthcare professionals, the health implications of racial and economic injustice, and the need for reformation of the healthcare system.

This course is focused on the multiplicities of narrative that are sport, with a special emphasis on American authors and U.S. sports journalism. Sports by definition are stories that literally play out in front of us: stories that involve conflict – conflict within the self, conflict in relationships, conflict against the elements, and, if we believe it possible, conflict with the supernatural. Through sports literature, students will thoughtfully investigate human interactions: the best we have to offer and sometimes the worst. Sports literature, whether that be fiction, non-fiction, drama, or poetry, asks us to consider what is just and what is unjust -- and how we discern which is which. Analytical and creative non-fiction writing assignments put students in thoughtful conversation with the ways that race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, class, disability, or other underrepresented or marginalized positions affect our engagement with sports and our world. Prerequisites: ENGL 121 or 190, or transfer equivalent.

Characters are the heartbeats of our stories. What makes a good character? How do you craft real, complex, and well-developed people that connect with your readers? In this course we will attempt to answer these questions by studying and practicing effective methods of character development in short stories and novels. We will source inspiration from contemporary literature and television series, including BREAKING BAD, SURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM, CHEWING GUM, as well as authors like Kazuo Ishiguro and Raven Leilani. Units will be divided to tackle specific aspects of character in fiction writing like protagonists, villains, voice, relationships, conflict, culture, dialogue, etc. This course consists of a blend of literary and film analysis, generative writing exercises, and writing workshops.

This course surveys literature by women across the long twentieth century—from early-century writers like Charlotte Perkins Gilman and Virginia Woolf to contemporary writers such as Tracy K. Smith, Sarah Howe, and Ada Limón. Along the way, we will discuss social, cultural, and historical context, including contemporary issues. We will also read, analyze, and emulate the recent work of essayists such as Leslie Jamison and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie—writers who have forged new conversations about women, feminism, and gender studies. The course requires community involvement (event attendance and excursions), regular reading and writing assignments, and enthusiastic participation in class discussion. This course satisfies both an Integrations in the Humanities and the Diversity, Inclusion, and Social Justice requirements, as well as a WAC Writing to Learn requirement. In addition, this course satisfies a major/minor requirement for Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies students; it also satisfies the Human Diversity and Context and Convergences requirements for English with Literature & Writing majors, a Human Diversity requirement for English with Professional Writing majors, and a literature requirement for English with Creative Writing majors. Prerequisite: ENGL 106, 121 or 190.

This course will familiarize students with theories and practices of technical writers and explore opportunities for students in technical writing careers and graduate studies. Assigned projects will help students learn how technical writers are responsible for both creating content and also managing it across various digital systems. Topics will include user experience, content management, content operations, information design, single-source authoring, and other areas that become relevant as the field of technical writing expands. By articulating concepts integral to the field and by enacting them in diverse rhetorical situations and for diverse audiences, students will be better positioned to apply for technical writing positions or to graduate programs in technical and professional communication.

This course is about how 19th c. American literary traditions use Gothic tropes and modes to represent an idea of nature and the natural world. While we often think of “nature writing” as having a positive emotional orientation to human/nature relationships (in which safe exposure to wildness heals and refreshes our spirit, natural resources support human endeavors, and we do our best to use these resources wisely) such pastoralism masks darker truths. For example, the wallpaper in The Yellow Wallpaper looks like convulsing mushrooms and wallowing seaweeds. Frederick Douglass repeatedly uses images of being trapped in the earth to describe his despair while enslaved. In Poe’s famous story, Usher thinks it is stones and mold that cause his madness, and cursed mansions tend to collapse into lakes and oceans in Southern Gothic stories. With these and other examples in mind, we will turn our attention to a counter-tradition of nature writing in which negative emotional states prevail: fear, dread, even hate. In our readings of these and other “ecogothic” texts we will attend to a range of 19th c. contexts including: new ideas about the earth in geology and geography, claims about human nature in sexology, psychology, and scientific racism; mining and other extractive industries; and political movements like abolitionism, feminism, and animal rights. This course satisfies an Integration in the Humanities and the Diversity, Inclusion, and Social Justice core requirements, as well as a WAC Writing to Learn requirement. It also counts for the Sustainability minor. Prerequisite: ENGL 106, 121, or 190.

This course explores the ways in which literature and film represent the natural world, engage with ecological concerns like the environmental implications of AI, and invite us to reimagine our relationship with our planet. From Indigenous worldviews to climate change to speculative futures, we’ll examine how narrative forms—novels, poetry, memoirs, and cinema—help us make sense of our planet. Our texts will include voices from the Global South to shed light on how environmental issues intersect with colonial histories. Along the way, we’ll also engage with key concepts such as the Anthropocene, ecofeminism, and postcolonial ecologies. Students will develop critical tools to analyze narratives, reflect on what it means to live ethically and imaginatively in a time of environmental uncertainty, and consider how storytelling can inspire awareness, resistance, and change. And, of course, there will always be room for wonder—for recognizing the amazing gift that is our planet. We will begin with a book that captures this wonder: Samantha Harvey’s ORBITAL. Other texts for the semester may include Octavia Butler’s PARABLE OF THE SOWER, Amitav Ghosh’s THE HUNGRY TIDE, Robin Wall Kimmerer's BRAIDING SWEETGRASS, and Mai Der Vang's PRIMORDIAL. This course satisfies an Integration in the Humanities requirement and a WAC Writing to Learn requirement. Application is being made to have this course count as meeting a Sustainability requirement (approval not guaranteed). Prerequisite: ENGL 106, 121, or 190.

This course explores the genre of noir in both film and literature beginning chronologically in post-World War II America, exploring McCarthyism and Hollywood blacklisting, as well as women's changing roles during and after the war. This background will provide a basis for the success of film noir with American audiences. Texts used early in the course are often those adapted into film (James M. Cain’s Double Indemnity and Raymond Chandler’s The Big Sleep). Emphasis in film is placed on the visual techniques used to create the aesthetic of film noir. As filmmakers fled Germany and Austria in the 1930s to work in Hollywood, techniques from German expressionist film helped to visually convey feelings of alienation, obsession, and instability fundamental to the genre (for example, Fritz Lang’s The Big Heat, Billy Wilder’s Double Indemnity, and Otto Preminger’s Laura). The second half of the course will focus on the genre of noir in contemporary literature and film. Cinematic examples may include Devil in a Blue Dress, Memento, Mulholland Drive. Literary texts may include those written by Walter Mosley, Megan Abbott, and S. A. Cosby. NOTE: This is a cross-listed course, with 10 seats in this FILM 297 section and 10 seats in the ENGL 202-W02 section. Prerequisite: ENGL 106, 121, 190 or instructor permission.

In this course, students will view, discuss, and read and write about feature-length films from Africa, Asia, the Americas, Europe, and possibly India and/or the Middle East. Following critical viewing of films both in and outside of class, students will engage in critical reflection, discussion, and analytical writing as a way of practicing the art of film analysis. This course asks students to think critically about the ways in which cinema engages the world as a form of entertainment, as art, as historical document, and as an instrument of social change. The course fulfills the Human Diversity requirement of the core curriculum at UST by addressing issues of race, ethnicity, gender, and geopolitical status. It scrutinizes the ways in which institutionalized and structural power and privilege are reflected in the subject matter, creation, and audience reception of film.

This course is designed to introduce students to the filmmaking process, from script to screen. We will concentrate our attention on two main elements - understanding the technical concerns of narrative filmmaking (the apparatuses, learning camera functions and techniques, and using editing software), AND developing students' artistic voice through storytelling and film analysis. The course aims to strengthen students' ability to conceive and flesh out ideas that will lead to compelling, authentic, personally meaningful short films and give them the critical foundation of film study and production tools to execute their ideas. Students will begin to develop their own artistic vision and style through filmmaking. Pre-requisite: DIMA 240

This course trains students in the use of a wide range of film theory and criticism as tools for interpreting film and media as texts, as narrative, as works of art, as historical artifacts, as political expression, as semiotic systems, as mediums of identity and social change, and more. Building on knowledge and skills learned in FILM 200 Introduction to Film, students will learn a range of compelling critical methods for the analysis of film and media, including many of the following: auteur theory; psychoanalysis; feminism, gender and masculinity studies; Marxism; cultural studies; queer theory; audience reception and star studies; postcolonialism; genre analysis; and race and ethnicity, among others. Film Theory and Criticism will help situate you as informed, critically engaged viewers of global film and media texts and practices. Each area of film criticism will be accompanied by a screening of a film or films that elucidate main points of the area of film theory that is the focus for that week. Through the combination of canonical theoretical approaches and more contemporary angles developed since the 1970s, this course will provide you with skills necessary to interpret films as collaborative art works, as technical artifacts, as sociocultural and ideological productions, and as products of a globalized media world. Prerequisite: Film 200 or instructor permission.

Identity & Power
When we consider eco-feminism – ecology and feminism – we are delving into what Susan Archer Mann defines as “a diverse range of women’s efforts to save the earth” as well as “transformations in feminist thought that have resulted in new conceptualizations of the relationship between the domination of women and the domination of nature” (DOING FEMINIST THEORY, 413). I would argue that this theoretical construct is only “new” when we consider it from a white, Euro-American historical perspective. This course will consider the literature that both expresses and analyzes the intersection of ecology and feminism. We will start with Greta Gaard's Critical Ecofeminism to help us create our theoretical lens. Then, we will read novels and works of creative non-fiction that put critical eco-feminist theory into practice. Authors may include Octavia Butler, Ursula Le Guin, Robin Wall Kimmerer, Paula Gunn Allen, Leslie Marmon Silko, Louise Erdrich, Amy Leach, Velma Wallis, and Linda Hogan. This course must be one of the first five courses taken in the MA in English program. Satisfies the Identity & Power requirement. Prerequisite: GENG 513

Identity & Power
Almost everyone has heard of the Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s, but far fewer are familiar with the Black Arts Movement of the 1960s and 70s, arguably the most important and influential Black artistic movement of the twentieth century. Allied with the Black Power Movement, BAM writers and theorists articulated a uniquely Black aesthetic, rooted in vernacular Black culture, and inextricably bound to a Black radical politics of liberation. Primarily focused on poetry and drama, BAM artists rejected western aesthetics and forms, eschewing artistic beauty and the comfort of the audience for direct attacks on whiteness, demands for political power, and professions of racial pride and Black nationalist strength. Most importantly, the artists and theorists of the Black Arts Movement created art specifically for Black people intended to educate, inspire, build solidarity, and provoke political and cultural revolution. For them, their aesthetics and their politics were the same, and their art was revolutionary action. This course will examine the art and theory of the movement with an eye toward its nearly sixty-year legacy. The Black Arts Movement has had an outsized influence on Black art and culture that followed it: from Hip Hop to Black literature and publishing to Black Studies – and even the use of the word “Black” to refer to a people. This course satisfies the Identity & Power requirement. Prerequisite: GENG 513 or permission of the instructor.

In the Latin American context, Mexican cinema stands out not only for the scope of its production but also for the central role it has played in shaping cultural identity since the inception of film in the early twentieth century. Of the three major film-producing countries in the region—Argentina, Brazil, and Mexico—Mexico has developed the most sustained and influential industry, producing films that have achieved both domestic popularity and international recognition. This course explores Mexican cinema as a powerful site for negotiating questions of gender, family, nation, spirituality, ethnicity, and regional belonging. From the Golden Age of the 1930s–1950s to internationally acclaimed films such as Amores perros (2000) and Roma (2018), Mexican filmmakers have shaped both national and global conversations about identity. Through themes such as the Mexican Revolution, constructions of masculinity and femininity, genre cinema, LGBTQI perspectives, and recent box-office successes, students will analyze how film both reflects and challenges cultural narratives while situating Mexican cinema in its broader historical, political, and aesthetic contexts. This is a fully online, asynchronous course

Topics may vary with each offering and may include History of the Spanish Language, Spanish Pragmatics, and Spanish in the U.S. Credit may be earned more than once under this number for different emphases. Spring 2026: In this course we will consider how our traditional perception of words and meaning (e.g. the practice of looking up definitions of a word in the dictionary) fails to explain how we communicate and understand one another’s thoughts, feelings, needs, etc. As successful communicators, we constantly rely on our contextual knowledge to interpret what speakers intend to say, and the study of Pragmatics provides us with insight into this process. In addition to studying different linguistic phenomena in Spanish, we will also take into account differences between Spanish and English. First 60 minutes via Zoom + asynchronous work

This course provides an in-depth study into a particular area of Spanish Linguistics. Topics may vary with each offering and may include Phonology/Morphology, Syntax, Dialectology, Semantics/Pragmatics, Discourse Analysis, and Second Language Acquisition. Credit may be earned more than once under this number for different emphases. Prerequisites: Successful completion of SPAN 301 and 305 or their equivalents with a C- or better in each course (may be taken simultaneously with SPAN 305). Spring 2026: In this course we will consider how our traditional perception of words and meaning (e.g. the practice of looking up definitions of a word in the dictionary) fails to explain how we communicate and understand one another’s thoughts, feelings, needs, etc. As successful communicators, we constantly rely on our contextual knowledge to interpret what speakers intend to say, and the study of Pragmatics provides us with insight into this process. In addition to studying different linguistic phenomena in Spanish, we will also take into account differences between Spanish and English. First 60 minutes via Zoom + asynchronous work.

In this course students will learn introductory techniques and principles of translation, review Spanish grammar and improve their reading and writing skills. The main objective of this course will be to develop the necessary skills in order to become proficient communicators in bilingual contexts. We will mainly use Spanish as a source language to translate an array of journalistic, literary, academic, and technical texts into English. At some specific instances, we will translate from English to Spanish to give students the opportunity to practice this skill as well. To enhance the practical component of the course, we will reflect on key theoretical issues related to translation practice through selected readings on translation as a process and as a product, cultural issues in translation, and the role of the translator today. Prerequisites: Successful completion of SPAN 301 and 305 or their equivalents with a C- or better in each course, (may be taken simultaneously with SPAN 305). First 60 minutes in person, + online asynchronous.

The National Environmental Health Association has listed climate change as the biggest human health threat of the Twenty-First Century. In this course, we will explore the connection between health and the environment by examining the mutual dependency of all forms of life (human, social, animal, vegetal, etc.), with special attention to Spanish-speaking populations. We will scrutinize the interrelated effects of climate change on individual health and social health, and we will examine the effects of human action on environmental health in Spanish-speaking areas. Since unhealthy environments have an especially devastating effect on the mental and physical health of certain communities, this course will cover the above-mentioned topics from a social justice angle, examining both specific problems (environmental pollution, water contamination, pesticides and transgenics in food; hunger) and alternatives (such as food sovereignty, ecofeminism, sumak kawsay) that can be found in the Hispanophone world. The course is conducted 100% in Spanish. We welcome and encourage Spanish Heritage Learners to register for this course.

SPAN 487 Topics: Novelas-Cervantes/Zayas (2 cr.) Stories of Love, Power, and Deception: Cervantes & Zayas in Context: Step into the world of 17th-century Spain, where tales of love, wit, betrayal, and resistance come alive in prose that shaped the modern short story. This 2-credit seminar explores two extraordinary collections of novellas that defined—and defied—the ideals of their age: Miguel de Cervantes’s Novelas ejemplares and María de Zayas’s Novelas amorosas y ejemplares and Desengaños amorosos (Parte segunda del Sarao y entretenimientos honestos). Across these works, the ejemplar—the “exemplary” tale meant to teach a moral—becomes something far more complex. Cervantes crafts stories of rogues, lovers, and tricksters that balance irony and virtue, while Zayas transforms the form into a bold feminist critique, exposing the dangers of love, the constraints on women’s lives, and the violence masked by honor and decorum. This course counts toward the Spanish major and minor, and it is a Global Perspectives and Writing-in-the-Discipline course.

SPAN 488 Topics: Moorish Cult.-Early Spain (2 cr.) Voices of Al-Andalus: Moorish Spain and its Cultural Legacy: Step into medieval Iberia, where Arabic poetry echoed through palaces, scholars translated ancient wisdom by lamplight, and the scent of orange blossoms drifted across courtyards of marble and mosaic. This 2-credit seminar (taught in Spanish) explores the luminous world of Moorish Spain—a crossroads of languages, religions, and ideas whose legacy still shapes the Spanish imagination today. Through readings, images, and discussion, we will journey across eight centuries of Al-Andalus (711–1492), the Muslim-ruled territories of the Iberian Peninsula. We will trace the rise of Córdoba as a center of learning and refinement, the artistry of Granada’s Alhambra, and the persistence of Mudéjar and Morisco cultures after the Reconquista as well as debates resulting in the eventual expulsion of Spain’s Morisco population (1609 - 1613 ). This course counts toward the Spanish major and minor, and it is a Global Perspectives, and Writing-in-the-Discipline course.
