This article details strategies used by the author to plan an undergraduate course in literature by women, market it to a wary student body, and teach it in a way that would allow students to learn and express themselves in a congenial but challenging environment. The author suggests that teachers who are teaching such a course to culturally conservative students should assess the dominant culture and then select centerpiece texts that will appeal to the student body and that can be used as the focal point of a marketing strategy. The audience in the author's class consisted primarily of students who were associated with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. [From the text]
