AnaMaria Seglie Clawson is an associate professor of English whose goal is to present students with a range of opportunities that enable them to see their learning at work in their communities. Her English courses focus on early and contemporary U.S. literature with the aim of helping students connect course material to the world outside the classroom. In that regard, Clawson includes experiences such as archival visits, service work and group projects that help students develop skills that will serve them in a career after college.
