Biography

Timothy Maguder has been an Instructor of English at LSU since the Fall of 2021. He earned an MFA in Writing from Columbia University in 2017, after many years in the fine arts world, as both interdisciplinary artist and curator. He is a published poet, sports writer, and has exhibited his multimedia work at Art Basel Miami and New Paris Gothic. 
At LSU, Timothy has served on both Faculty Advocacy and Grade Appeal Committees. His courses tend to be an amalgam of art, film and literature, with an emphasis on visual analysis and the careful navigation of controversial topics. The consistent, central objectives within his courses (Sculpting the Argument, Excavating Evil & Embracing the Absurd) are critical thinking development, and promoting adequate research into opposing viewpoints.
