English Composition II: Writing Arguments

This course will engage students in the process of written argument. Students will take increased responsibility for the composition process, and, upon completion of the course, they will be able to develop informed perspectives based on the collection and analysis of authoritative sources. Students will be able to construct cogent arguments from those perspectives through the logical development of ideas, consistent style, and technical precision. Moreover, students will learn to adapt to varied audiences and rhetorical situations.

Note: For successful completion of this course, it is recommended that students are familiar with English 101 or equivalent.
