HNAR-366: Beautiful Argument

An advanced argument-writing class in which students will read, study, and generate persuasive writing in "non-traditional" forms or with unexpected rhetorical strategies, leaning especially toward image and page/publication design as part of argumentation. The class will also: build and exercise radical visual literacy; require responsible, generative research; posit theory as making; introduce students to a range of topics, and ways thoughtful makers engage with the world; and inspire reevaluation of assumptions about persuasive writing-what it is and what it can be.
