The English Department’s “combination classes” give students the opportunity to approach two topics at the same time to improve their skills and understanding of both. For example, in a 10-credit composition and literature combination, students read, discuss, analyze, and write about significant literary works. The Department recommends that students in combination classes have college-level placement.

Read My World: Literacy, Learning and Community

Discover how words impact your personal, public and academic life. This course will explore the meaning of the word literacy and our connection to how various literacy communities impact our relationship to those communities in which we participate. Through a shared and collaborative learning experience, students will create and develop their own supportive learning strategies and network while developing essential academic reading, writing and college management skills. Our learning will extend beyond the classroom into our own lives as we find out what it means “to read” our world.

English Composition & Literature • 10 CR

This course combines Introduction to Fiction (ENGL 112) with English Composition I (ENGL& 101). This enables us to write different types of papers on really interesting literature and you never have to worry about finding a topic. Many of the books have won national book awards. One book has the main character stranded in a lifeboat with a hyena, an orangutan, a wounded zebra, and a 450-pound Bengal tiger. Only fear, knowledge, and cunning can keep him alive or can they? This is a class where you can discuss the “What does this story really mean?” question and get good answers that make you want to write. Come along for the adventure.
