In this class taught by award-winning magazine journalist Jazmine Hughes, students will learn the key skills of long-form feature and profile writing: insight, empathy and the art of asking just one more question. Students will study the work of celebrated and contemporary writers -- Allison P. Davis, Vinson Cunningham, Rachel Kaadzi Ghansah, Hilton Als -- while considering the practices and shifting purposes of these forms of writing in contemporary media landscapes. In this reporting and writing intensive course, students will write, draft and develop a profile or essay, of magazine length, on their own chosen subjects, and will receive edits and consistent feedback.
