Writing Assignments Organizational success may well depend on your ability to communicate clearly in writing. The writing assignments will give you the opportunity to role play the communication problems you will most likely face in business. You will use writing to solve typical business problems. Just as your boss is not likely to pay you for days you don't show up to work, I will not reward you for days you do not show up to class. Employers expect you to learn these work habits at school.
Some students request the opportunity to earn extra credit.
