Who’s New at the Cain Project?

Jessie Dubreuil began working with the Cain Project this summer teaching writing, rhetoric, and argument. She has spent the fall semester leading a series of seminars on ethics and the elements of argument with students in BIOE 441, consulting with individual students, and developing resources for writing across the curriculum. These materials will meet a range of departmental and individual needs.

Jessie comes to Rice from the English Department at the University of Virginia, where she is a doctoral candidate, and brings to the Cain Project a background in teaching The Little Red Schoolhouse, a University of Chicago based writing and communication curriculum. Jessie received her BA and MA in English Literature from Stanford University. She taught sixth grade English at a charter school in East Palo Alto, California before pursuing a PhD. She is currently writing her dissertation, which examines the task of poetry and the role of imaginative theory, creative criticism and philosophical prose from the Romantic to the postmodern tradition.
