One of the professors I admired most when I was a student in Indiana University’s MFA program was Tony Ardizzone. An experienced hand on the fiction faculty, he was tasked with shepherding us new MFAs through our first semester teaching undergraduate writing courses. He presented a craft lecture on Mondays to the entire Introduction to Creative Writing class, 120+ students, and we greenhorn MFAs taught small-group sections on Wednesdays and Fridays, meeting with Tony several times during the semester to discuss our pedagogy.
This is great stuff, Christine -- thank you.
