Professors' writing inspired by students

By Katie Kilkenny | May 25, 2011

Deriving inspiration from the youth and navet of undergraduate students and capitalizing on the free time that the D-Plan allows, English faculty members specializing in creative writing enjoy both the peaceful provinciality of Hanover and the intense interactions in the classroom at Dartmouth as they find time to produce their own work. Professor Gary Lenhart, who teaches Writing 2, 3, 5 and 7 as well as English 80, Introduction to Creative Writing, finds that his writing is reinvigorated by the youthful enthusiasm of Dartmouth students. "Working with students, who constantly remind you that you're not young but once were and that there are still young people dealing with the things that you dealt with when you were young, is inspiring," Lenhart said.

"Undue Influence" is an evocative fusion of modern dance and theater that addresses the issue of sexual assault in a college campus environment.
