Season 2
Season 1
Latrinalia is a very clean word for a not-so-sanitary subject: writing on bathroom walls. In this show, we collect and analyze samples of this emerging literary form from some of Provo's most visited stalls.
Word of Mouth: Season Two! Stay tuned for our next show about latrinalia--bathroom graffiti. In this program, we travel around campus and beyond in an attempt to make sense of this writing on the stall.
For years the Writing Center has provided students with writing help with every imaginable paper below the academic sun. But our devotion to language and composition has always extended beyond the scholastic and pedagogical. For this reason, last Spring we focused all our energy and time in developing a project that would address those aspects that we are often unable to address and explore in our daily tutoring. The product of all our efforts is the official BYU Writing Center podcast: Word of Mouth.
Word of Mouth reflects our love of language, composition and our devotion to the BYU community. It explores through short etymological segments, book reviews, and engaging shows the intrinsically human need to create, tell, and retell stories.
