Eric,
About your inquiry on grad courses for next year: I'm re-applying to teach
COntemporary American Poetry (690, I believe), as I did last year. OR 652,
Issues: Contemporary World Literature, which I taught with some success
once before. One or the other would be for spring semester. That's it!
Thanks for doing this --
David
