"To be a writer is to be a student of
the world and a courier of emotion and experience. I would not
exchange my years at Susquehanna University for anything."
-- Laurie Hartzell ’06
"You'll be asked why you write, what you
plan to do with your major, and why you chose to take such a risk.
You'll second guess yourself, wonder what you're going to do with
your life, and struggle. Then, when you realize this program cultivates
within you the desire to strive unlike any other could, you'll
suck it up and write." -- Alexis Czencz ’04
