Allyn and Bacon, 1998. In this course the theory and practice of composition, the fundamentals of grammar, the use of revision, analysis of college level essays and methods of academic research are studied. Numerous essays are written and revised. Readings as assigned. Class participation, attendance.
All essays are due on time.
A failure to submit essays on time results in a failing grade for the essay unless arrangements are made prior to the submission of the essay. This is a class in which writing and thinking are thought to have some intimate relation to one another. Thus, I value inquiry from unique perspectives. Ideas not formulas. Passion and rigor.
