Question - Poetry Slam
A student working as an administrative assistant in the
English Department has recently become involved in "poetry
slam" competitions. She writes poems outside of working hours,
although if she gets an idea for a poem while working, she
quickly jots the idea down in a notebook she carries to help
remind her later when she has time to write. She has done
well in several competitions, even winning a few, and the
faculty members in the English Department love hearing about
the competitions. In fact, on several occasions, they have
asked her to perform her poems for them during working hours,
offering her suggestions as to how to revise or improve several
poems. The student considers these poems her personal work,
despite the involvement of the faculty members and her note
taking during working hours. Are they?
