Offered during the spring term, the course is for individuals interested in developing careers as food writers, cookbook authors and restaurant reviewers.

In addition, noted food writers and editors, restaurant critics and cookbook authors will be guest speakers.

The course, which carries 4.5 quarter hours of credit, will be taught on Monday evenings from 6:00 p.m. to 9:45 p.m. starting in March. The first class will be held on Friday, March 11. The cost for the 11-week course is $531.
