English 2nd and 3rd year courses
Does anyone know of this - Creative Writing - course? A teacher of mine was encouraging me to take it and she went to Mac... but the courses might have changed. If anyone has taken this was it easy? Challenging? How would you say you were graded? By effort, or substance, or quality?

I'm also thinking of taking the Jane Austen course in the next 2 yrs. I'd really appreciate it if anyone could give me ANY info on this course too, or the Fairytale course, or even the Monsters and Magic course.

The Jane Austen and Monsters and Magic classes are usually taught once every three years or so, and oftentimes in the summer.

The Fairy Tale course was taught last year by Iris Bruce.

The creative writing course is still offered (but not always every year). There is also a fourth year creative writing seminar, but you have to be in the honours English program to be able to select it as a seminar option.

What's the code for Creative Writing, and can a non-Hummer take it? I might be fun to write something that doesn't argue a point in five paragraphs...
