College-level reading and writing require flexibility, open-mindedness, discernment, and a willingness to learn along the way. This course is designed around those principles, and encourages students to discover new ways of finding and making meaning.
Students plan, draft, and complete written compositions in response to readings and oral discourse. Students are expected to read critically, think analytically, and communicate clearly in both writing and speech. They respond to the readings with a variety of registers as they interpret the influences of historical and social context on literary works.
