Then, about a month before fall quarter begins, we assign interns to sections, trying to satisfy as many faculty preferences and intern preferences as is mathematically possible. All other things being equal, when more interns want a particular sequence than there are sections of that sequence, we assign sections to interns who have acquired seniority in the program. LRS is a quarter-long course in advanced academic and professional writing. We now offer versions of LRS for graduate students in the divisions, for MBA students in the Graduate School of Business, and for third and fourth-year undergraduates in the College. We're geared to helping writers reach the academic and professional readers that they'll be addressing in graduate school or in their professions after college.
Lectors meet with approximately seven students once a week in an hour and a half long seminar.
Students write short papers once a week, read each others papers, and discuss them in the seminar. Lectors read the student's papers, lead the seminar discussion, and write extensive critiques on the papers each week. Lectors also attend the weekly lecture that the students attend. In addition, if you are in the fifth year of Ph.D. study or beyond, you are eligible for tuition remission. Additional teaching opportunities for Lectors.
