Each student will choose (2) three-hour workshops featuring an insider’s guide to the industry, a Q&A, and an assignment to be completed for review the second half of the class. In addition to learning the tricks of the trade, students will have an opportunity to have their work published in the second volume of 122, the BCAE’s print magazine featuring the original work of symposium instructors and students alike. For each section of the magazine, students will receive instruction, then draft and submit original content for their instructor’s review. Students’
