Collective Thoughts is a blog published once a semester by our UIC students. We are pleased to present the work of our student authors. Our blog is open to an array of genres including fiction, essays, and creative writing pieces. Our blog is an open space for our UIC students to IMAGINE, CREATE, and INSPIRE as they share their creative expressions. The mission of Creative Thoughts is to provide a platform to showcase the unique voice of the developing and emerging writer and to foster the love of writing.
During the Fall semester, our students took time to reflect on our American values and how these values have helped to shape our nation and set the stage for our democratic experiment. Students took time to deliberate on the first three words of the United States Constitution, “We the People”… In addition, students were asked to contemplate and share a pivotal time in their lives and how it brought them to where they are today.
We are thankful to our wonderful students for sharing with us!
