Abstract
Brief excerpt from interview: [I decided to take this course while] searching for my final semester of courses and what would fit into categories of what I was required to take. We were working on a place-based paper for [Candace's 370] class final, and I had a really hard time narrowing it down to the eight pages she required. So I thought it would be a great course to take because then I could elaborate into fifteen pages and even then it was difficult to narrow it down to fifteen! I have nine [Writing Intensive credits]. So yes, I didn't need [this course] as a Writing Intensive, but it's really easy to take a course that you're really passionate about and write and not even think about the Writing Intensive part.
