Prerequisite: ENGL 106 or appropriate placement score Students earn 6 transferable credit hours in general education requirements (3 for ENGL 122, Composition II, and 3 for HIST 140, U.S. History to 1877). The philosophy behind joining these two courses together is to encourage students to think critically and write effectively with American history providing unifying themes. Writing instruction works best when students can focus sustained attention on one particular discipline. Writing in college and the workplace demands the ability to synthesize often conflicting information gathered from various sources. The discipline of American history provides ample opportunities for students to develop skills in composing various types of prose.
