A seminar aimed at creating a research community for senior literary studies majors who must conceive and execute a full-length research project on an author or a topic. Students meet several times a quarter over three quarters for a total of 5 credit hours (1 hour, 2 hours, 2 hours), with a grade given each quarter. Autumn Quarter is devoted to choosing one’s author or topic, learning more about research, and completing an annotated bibliography; winter quarter is devoted to reading and researching, meeting regularly with one’s director, and writing a project draft; spring quarter is devoted to completing and revising the project. Each student will present his/her work in a form determined by the teacher of the seminar. Each student works individually with a director and reader, and a project defense with directors and readers will take place near the end of Spring Quarter.
