The Cornell College Center for the Literary Arts celebrates the study, teaching, and creation of writing that explores human experience, communicates insight, embodies inspiration, and transmits value. To that end, it fosters the cultivation of imaginative writing and communication across disciplines.
Van Etten-Lacey House
The center is housed in the Van Etten-Lacey House, a charming building with a long tradition of creative activity, and it supports a variety of programs that bring distinguished visiting writers to campus for courses, workshops, and readings.
Student Organizations
The Van Etten-Lacey House is also home to our two student organizations, the Student Literary Arts Board (SLAB), which organizes literary activities on campus, and the literary and arts journal Open Field.
