Join English professor and award-winning poet Richard Kenney and a band of writers, artists, scientists and naturalists in the San Juan Islands for an intensive, inspiring course in literature, creative writing, and marine biology. No experience is required -- just bring your curiosity and imagination.
This fall, live by the sea and enroll in courses that explore the beautiful and varied marine environment at the University of Washington's Friday Harbor campus. Read, write, and explore the sea and the seashore through literature, creative writing, marine biology, ocean, and fisheries courses (12-17 credits) that take full advantage of the San Juan Island setting. What better place to read works of sea-faring literature, or to take a marine biology course where you can actually interact with the marine life you are studying? Writers, artists, scientists, and researchers have long been drawn to the sea -- come and experience it for yourself while earning UW credit.
Costs include room, board (three delicious meals per day), and course/lab fees. Just bring your ferry fare and pocket money.
