WRITING A RECIPE
FOR CREATIVITY
|
|
Crack open an egg and find a character or a place.
That was the concept a group of Suffolk students brought to youngsters at a writing center where vacationing schoolchildren spun the prompts into stories about alternate universes.
The students' collaboration grew out of English Professor Wyatt Bonikowski’s project-based creative writing course, developed to see how students could “keep their interest in writing alive by taking a creative approach.”

CREATING A GREAT PLACE TO LEARN. DEAN COYNE'S #SUFFOLKSTORY
|
|
As an undergraduate at Suffolk, I was able to work with other students to found the Program Council, which is one of the most critical and influential student groups on campus. I learned the basics of promoting student activities to foster a spirited and engaged student population. These opportunities led me to a career in higher education and working with students to develop their personal, leadership, and career skills. Now, 34 years after my graduation, I'm back at my beloved Suffolk, still working with others to make the campus a great place for learning.
Ann Coyne now serves at Dean of Students & Associate Vice President for Enrollment.
