Yes, Writing Well. By then Hall

Posted on September 24, 2026 at 01:03:08 PM by jhamm

had just left UM and moved to New Hampshire IIRC. Our TA told us admin wanted Hall to do more uppidy professor stuff, but he just wanted to teach kids at entry level.

So he moved and, I think afterwards was named US Poet Laureate. Would love to have had him.

I also still have my Writing Well paperback textbook. They will have to pry it from my cold, dead hands.

Back to the board

Jhamm, your freshman comp text—On Writing Well? Was Hall still at UM then? I have a copy of that I picked up years ago. - By hurryup September 24, 2026 at 12:46:26 PM

  - My roommate took Hall’s course in poetry for non-English-majors. I crashed it once or twice. But I knew Hall slightly - By hurryup September 24, 2026 at 01:20:01 PM
