stumbled across one of DFW's syllabi from teaching at Pomona College online today.
Literary Interpretation Syllabus
so cool! had me chuckling in several places:
notably on pg. 3 where he allocates final mark percentage to his students' "alacrity of carriage." also, on pg. 1 where he provides a quote from another professor's previous syllabus for the course and refers to it as a "somewhat sexier riff." it seems that even DFW's syllabi couldn't escape his constant desire to append, to clarify, to revise through footnotes.
another syllabus from 1994 is shown here from the DFW archives.
