A & P Parking Lot

I'm not sure where lines are being drawn in the vision of the A & P Parking Lot classroom. The idea is one that I relish. The "new math" concept is now old, and the composition concept is even older. I agree with the concept, but am certain that the world of academia outside the parking lot still requires parking inside the lines. It seems that "an architecture of bold communication rather than one of subtle expression" would only be accepted in creative writing classes.
"Our universal notions of good writing become a totalizing program of design control." This implies that students only become good writers when they follow the traditions that we set forth, when they lose their exuberance, when they become us. That might explain why some excursions in urban writing goes over well and others might not. If the instructor, for example, is more in tune with urbanism, more accepting of its styles, then for that moment, the writer might be deemed a "good writer."
