In 1955 Harvard proposed a creative writing program. The real writers on
staff, Wilbur and Updike, deep-sixed the proposal, arguing that young

18-year-olds in this country taking courses in the art of writing their
memoirs! Sam Gwynn has presciently observed that if we extrapolate present
rates of growth, by 2100 every man, woman and child in America will have a
degree in creative writing.</i
