Unfortunately, Bernard Cooper is not a member of the literature faculty for undergraduate students. Several of the literature faculty for our undergraduate program teach in the MFA in Writing program (which is low-residency and here when we are off at Field Work Term or summer break) and I know that faculty that teach in the MFA program have been hired to teach us undergraduates too in the past (sometimes as regular faculty and sometimes as visitors for a term or two). That being said, I wouldn’t count on Bernard Cooper being hired to teach you.

These are the literature faculty this term:

Marguerite Feitlowitz, Annabel Davis-Goff, Mark Wunderlich, Dan Hofstadter, Rebecca (Becky) Godwin, Camille Guthrie, John Gould, Megan Mayhew-Bergman, Alexandar Mihailovic, and Brooke Allen

In the fall Doug Bauer teaches and I know that we are right now searching for two more literature faculty members (one of whom will be a poet). 

One last thing: While the MFA program is here when most students are not, I know that I’ve had several friends who have been hired as program assistants and have gotten to stick around and sit in on lectures and readings!
