At the Touch of Love, Everyone Becomes a Poet: A Look Back at the Love Core

Forms of Love, the first year spring semester core course, asks students to explore that exceptional and ordinary thing: love. How is love different between cultures, across the ages, for a friend, a mother, a lover, or God?

I only ever knew Clare Wigfall’s work on paper, so seeing my former creative writing professor read a story, microphone in hand, lit up in the far corner of the lowered stage, I was struck by the realization that creating a story could exist outside of just writing one.  “What makes a story?” I thought,

An Interview with BCB’s Managing Director, Florian Becker
