The poetry, fiction, creative non-fiction and drama structure courses are all electives for my PW minor program. Since they have nothing to do with journalism, how do they benefit me?
Each writing course you take will improve your editing skills and your facility with language. They will expose you to different ideas and authors. But if you do not wish to take writing courses as electives, you may take other courses that interest you—such as, in history, anthropology, English or other languages—to augment your general knowledge.
