“The Naropa Institute announces an MFA Program: Writing & Poetics”, a poster advertising for students – describing the program, the details, and the faculty & adjunct/visiting faculty. This lists (with photos and bios) Anne Waldman, Allen Ginsberg, Jack Collom, Diane di Prima, Bobbie Louise Hawkins, Anselm Hollo, Jane Augustine, Mei Mei Berssenbrugge, William Burroughs, Reed Bye, Jim Carroll, Andrei Codrescu, Clark Coolidge, Robert Creeley, Fielding Dawson, Kenward Elmslie, Marianne Faithfull, Joanne Kyger, Bernadette Mayer, Michael McClure, Alice Notley, Simon Ortiz, Gary Snyder, and Philip Whalen.  The photo of Burroughs on this poster is particularly spectral.
