Ohio Wesleyan English and creative writing graduates excel in careers in writing, teaching, publishing, business, public policy, and a wide range of other fields. Koritha Mitchell '96, Ph.D., is award-winning author, feminist scholar, and cultural critic, and is a professor of English at The Ohio State University. Above, she speaks with students while visiting OWU.

Some have pursued graduate study at such schools as Columbia, Cornell, Johns Hopkins, New York University, Northern Arizona University, the University of Colorado, the University of Iowa, The Ohio State University, and the film school at the University of Southern California. Our graduates have become editors at such publishers as Random House, McGraw-Hill, and Little, Brown, and at magazines such as Paris Review, New York Review of Books, Village Voice, and even America's Test Kitchen.

Others have attended law school or used their skills in business, government, or the nonprofit sector. Still others are published writers of fiction, poetry, nonfiction. One recent graduate is a writer and performer whose debut solo play — developed in Ohio Wesleyan creative writing courses — has since been performed at sold-out shows in New York City.
