Prerequisite(s): ENGL 106
In this intermediate composition course, students will continue to hone their critical reading, thinking, and writing skills. Students will analyze examples of writing from across the curriculum in order to understand the process of writing an academic essay. Students will also learn more about the research process—in particular, finding, integrating, and citing sources. To accomplish these objectives, students will write three major essays (argumentative, cause and effect, and process analysis) as well as a literary research paper.

This course is only open to students in the B.A. Liberal Arts and Sciences program.
