The extra upper level writing requirement for the minor in writing allowed me to take arguably the best course over these past years at Michigan. I was able to explore a topic I'd dabbled in in the past but never at the college level. This was the most rigorous "paper" course I've taken, as well. The revisions were endless and the grading was less than friendly, but I was writing about a topic that really mattered to me. Because of this, I am proud to include a school paper on this website even though it was written with rigorous requirements and constructs.
