Keuka College students shared with residents of Clinton Crest Manor in Penn Yan, a novel they combined to write titled “Who is Penn Yan?”.
The fourth edition of the publication includes nearly two dozen profiles of Penn Yan residents, all penned by students in the College’s Associate Professor of English Dr. Jennie Joiner’s “Literature in the Wider World” class.
The stories came about through repeated student interviews last fall of residents at the Clinton Crest Manor assisted living facility. And they show that many an ordinary-seeming neighbor has lived an extraordinary life.
