First sentence: Fifteen years ago, Washington State University (WSU) did not have an entry writing-placement exam, nor a portfolio-based, junior-level placement exam articulating with the entry exam, nor a cross-campus corps of faculty readers for the exams, nor tutorial courses at lower-division and upper-division levels to assist at-risk students through required writing courses.
