Dear Students and Parents, my name is Elizabeth Ives, and I have degrees in both art (my BFA from the School at the Art Institute of Chicago) and pre-modern history (MA from Villanova University).

My approach to that course was to give students the basics in simple rhetoric so they could structure their written work with confidence. The writing assignments were varied and I assigned readings from both fiction and non-fiction to give the students at least a minimal... Read more
