Courses

The faculty has approval to offer the following courses in the academic years 1998-1999 and 1999-2000; however, all courses are not taught each semester or summer session. Students should consult the Course Schedule to determine which courses and topics will be offered during a particular semester or summer session. The Course Schedule may also reflect changes that have been made to the courses listed here since this catalog was printed.

A full explanation of course numbers is given in General Information. In brief, the first digit of a course number indicates the semester hour value of the course. The second and third digits indicate the rank of the course: if they are 01 through 19, the course is of lower-division rank; if 20 through 79, of upper-division rank; if 80 through 99, of graduate rank.

Division of Rhetoric and Composition

The Division of Rhetoric and Composition provides lower- and upper-division writing instruction. Courses include the required freshman course English 306, lower-division elective courses, and upper-division courses in rhetoric and writing. The division also administers the Undergraduate Writing Center, which supports writing instruction in all undergraduate courses, and the Computer Writing and Research Laboratories, which offer innovative approaches for integrating computers into writing instruction.

Placement in English 306

Before enrolling in English 306, all students must take the SAT II: Subject Test in Writing. The student should obtain the score before seeing an adviser for approval to register. Those who receive placement credit for English 306 may elect to register for English 309S, Critical Reading and Persuasive Writing.

If a student has received either a passing or a failing grade or the symbol Q in English 306, he or she may not earn credit by examination for this course.

Students whose native language is not English must present their scores on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) to the division office, Parlin Hall 3, to determine their eligibility to take English 306Q in place of 306.

For information about the SAT II subject test and scores required for placement in English 306, see General Information.
