Community Based Writing and Rhetoric

(3 Credit Hours) · Undergraduate

These sections of Writing and Rhetoric place students in learning situations that engage with the local community, often in off-campus activities. Each section focuses on a particular social issue and its attendant discourse, with related writing assignments and community work. Students learn to craft effective arguments and pursue academic research. Some sections also carry the SUS4 designation, counting the course toward the Minor in Sustainability. We welcome all students with an interest in community engagement and a commitment to social justice.
