Abstract

Brief excerpt from interview: Compared to creative writing, Psychology and Communicology is very... researched based... The standards are a little more explicit, such as citations, quoting from certain researchers, and everything. It's like a crash course for graduate school. The Writing Intensive during my undergraduate career... I didn't learn that aspect in high school. I feel that it's helped me become a better writer. I try to double-dip. For example, if I can fulfill both the Psychology course with a Writing Intensive, or a Communicology course with a Writing Intensive, rather than having to take... some other course in another department just to fill that Writing Intensive... Although you do gain some different perspectives from these classes, it takes time and money for me... If I did prioritize I would feel much better prepared for graduate school and everything... I feel that reflecting on [my writing as an undergraduate], seeing where you've improved, where you still need to improve on will help you work on those strengths and weaknesses.
