“Remembrance” is a memoir-writing course designed so that everyone will write and read his or her work in class. The format is simple: Writers read their work aloud; others follow the reading with photocopies. Then everyone “critiques” the work. That is, everyone evaluates what they’ve heard on the basis of form, content, and technique. Don’t worry about reading aloud. Your classmates will be supportive and helpful in their evaluations.

This is the 26th time that “Remembrance” has been offered at OSHER@Dartmouth. Those who have taken this course before are welcomed back. Those who have not taken this course will be welcomed as well.
