This course is designed to introduce non-native English speakers the writing skills they will need in college. The course focuses on the writing process and developing writing skills in two areas: out-of-class compositions and in-class essay tests. Students learn to write short papers that are clear, concise, unified, and relatively free of mechanical and grammatical problems. Students write a minimum of eight papers, some out of class and at least two in class.
