English 101 First-Year Seminars
(Writing-intensive courses) Though sections of English 101 differ in specific content, all develop the skills of careful reading and effective writing essential to the liberal arts and sciences. Students will write frequently and have an opportunity to revise their work. By active participation in class discussion, students will develop their speaking skills and learn to ask critical questions, formulate answers, and frame persuasive arguments.
English 101 is offered in both semesters. Students who do not take the course in the fall should consider enrolling in the spring. Like other first-year seminars, English 101 is intended primarily for students at the start of their college career. Only first-year students may preregister for the course. Sophmores, juniors, and seniors may inquire if there is space available during the first two weeks of class. English 101, First-Year Seminar, does not count toward the requirement of 36 credits for the English Major.
