This course will enable students to research effectively, marshal arguments and information, and write persuasively. Students will work closely with the instructor on a series of short and medium-length writing assignments. These assignments will require students to explore situations of conflict and human rights abuse. Students will then work closely with the instructor to input feedback and improve both their research and writing skills. Students enrolled in this seminar have been admitted to the Human Rights Advocacy Minor. When possible, assignments in the writing seminar will correspond to substantive issues examined in other elements of the Human Rights Advocacy Minor.
