- Irv, I have a bit of a problem with the multiple genre syllabus. I'm not sure
- how much a student learns about a prose genre by having one go at it. The
- conventions of all the different types of papers you mentioned are
- complicated, not often spelled out very clearly. One of the things we have to
- do in our syllabi, in my view, is make choices. We can't do all kinds of
- writing.
