Chair of the English Department and Shakespeare professor, Mary Bly discusses Fordham’s Creative Writing program and its community-centered mentality that emphasizes encouragement as opposed to discouragement.
Wertz described the program as “a way to enhance the culture of the college by increasing opportunities for student intellectual engagement, students’ relationship with the faculty and relationships that would really be generative.”
An internal hire, Stark-Gendrano will assume this role from her current position at Fordham as assistant director of Lincoln Center’s Office of Prestigious Fellowships. She is also an adjunct professor in the English department.
