Writing satisfies a human need for expression and communication, and also for problem-solving, as anyone who has used writing to reflect on a vexing personal or professional problem knows. Writing is a meaning-making activity, one that nourishes and enriches people for the rest of their lives. The First Year Writing Program presents a range of courses and opportunities to engage, showcase, and support the writing development of the members of our academic community. The First-Year Writing Program at ÌÇÐÄvlog is a national award-winning program\u00a0that provides undergraduate students with coursework required to fulfill the University General Education Communication requirements in Writing. These courses introduce students to the academic discourse of the university community and include College Writing I (WRIT105) and College Writing II (WRIT106).<\/p>\n
