CSEM 102 - College Seminar II

4 credits
Taken by transfer students who enter with first-year student standing and by entering first-year students who defer admission to the spring, College Seminar II combines the learning goals of the College Seminar and College Writing in a single 4-credit course. Like the College Seminar, the course emphasizes critical inquiry, analytical and creative thinking, critical reading, intellectual engagement with faculty and peers, and writing to learn. At the same time, it helps students to develop the essential skills taught in College Writing – their critical reading, writing, and research skills, and it strengthens all aspects of the writing process from invention to editing. Designed by a faculty member around a topic of his or her choice, the seminar is a lively discussion class in which students begin to acquire, to develop and to practice the skills associated with inquiry in the liberal arts. The seminar also begins to introduce students to appropriate uses of information from academic and non-academic sources. Fulfills the College Seminar and College Writing requirements for General Education. Offered Spring Semesters.
