The course, taught by Rolling Stone’s Brittany Spanos, was started on January 26 and is expected to continue till March 9.
The outlet also reported that the All Too Well singer has also been invited as a speaker; however, response to the request is still pending.
As per the official description of the course, students are expected to learn to “deconstruct the way her creativity and song-writing have made her a durable presence in a quickly evolving music industry”.
