Composition Program

The Composition Program offers first-year composition classes in which students develop writing skills essential for success in college and the workplace. In these classes, students write about important topics for the academic community and other serious-minded audiences. In doing so, students learn how to express their ideas clearly and convincingly while also considering the ideas of others who have thought carefully about complex issues.
