Average Course Rating

This Annapolis, Maryland-based course focuses on the shimmering beauty, complex ecology and environmental pressures of the nation’s largest estuary. Field excursions on and around the bay introduce students to scientists, policymakers and authors who specialize in bay issues, with time allotted for students to report and receive coaching on their own stories. Students also join in writing exercises and a student reading. This intensive, one-week elective course, part of the annual Hopkins Conference on Craft, supplies students with a range of writing ideas for later development.
