WR 122: English Composition

Writing 121/122 are advanced, college-level courses for dedicated students wishing to hone their writing skills and develop the critical reading and writing skills necessary for post-high school academic work. You will develop these skills through nonfiction readings and consistent, intensive writing. WR 121 (first semester) focuses on rhetorical analysis and in-depth expository writing, while WR 122 (second semester) deals with developing persuasive skills and effective written argumentation. Previous experience in advanced-level English classes is highly recommended but not essential. A Central Oregon Community College (COCC) placement test may be an additional prerequisite.
