ACAD 100

This course provides first-year students with tools for successful communication across the disciplines by emphasizing elements of effective writing and academic research. Topics include rhetorical considerations for effective writing, process-oriented writing and revision, critical reading skills, approaches to group collaboration, research tools, bibliographies, academic integrity, and citation methods. Section information text: Not all programs will use ACAD 100 for elective credit, and ACAD 100 should normally be taken before English 100. Students should check with their faculty for regulations.
