    Students will write argument-based assignments leading to an independently researched project based on academic and professional goals. Students will be required to 1.) find and integrate a variety of sources, 2.) read and analyze these sources, 3.) develop strong thesis statements that reflect perspectives on topics or issues, and 4.) construct persuasive arguments that engage with the viewpoints of experts and commentators. As the term progresses, students will have the opportunity to re-think or revise the ideas and perspectives they explored in earlier writing assignments by engaging with peer feedback and revising earlier drafts. Placement recommendations will require students to take ENGL 101 as a three-credit course OR in conjunction with an additional credit of lab or studio instruction. Students who earn F or NP grades in ENGL 101 will be required to re-take the course in conjunction with a one-credit Writing Studio course. Course Objectives (1) Engage in process-oriented approaches to writing, think collaboratively about writing, and provide constructive peer feedback. (2) Consider audience and purpose for each rhetorical situation, with attention to the development of argument and appropriate support. (3) Locate, evaluate, and integrate primary and secondary sources in order to situate ideas in conversation with other authors and texts. (4) Follow conventions for proper source documentations and correct grammar, spelling, and mechanics. (5) Analyze arguments from a variety of sources.

    ENGL 120 will introduce students to the scholarly study of literature. Students will learn to read and analyze at least three genres, such as the novel, the drama, and the short story, with attention to the different techniques and forms that writers use to create meaning. Students will also master the critical vocabulary of literary studies, and will learn to produce strong, persuasive close readings of literary texts. Prerequisite: ENGL 101 Course Objectives Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to: (1) Define literary terminology (characterization, point-of-view, imagery, metaphor, simile, etc.), and describe the principles that guide the study of literary language. (2) Apply those literary terms to selected passages of literature (close reading) in oral formats (presentations, class discussions). (3) Apply those terms to select passages of literature (close reading) in written formats (formal and informal writing assignments). (4)Describe and explain literary context. (5) Analyze primary texts and present analytical literary arguments in writing. (6) Respond to literary and theoretical interpretations.

    ENGL 250 will introduce students to the fundamentals of literary studies, including terms, definitions, and research methodologies. Students will learn what it means to produce a close reading, what different interpretative perspectives can offer us as we read a text, how to distinguish between primary and secondary sources, and how to research and develop a literary analysis. Prerequisite: ENGL 101 or equivalent. Course Objectives Upon successful completion of the course, students should be able to: (1) Demonstrate a familiarity with literary terminology (speaker, dialogue, performance, point-of-view, imagery, metaphor, simile, etc.), as well as an awareness of and appreciation for the principles that guide the study of literary language.
