Quarters: F, W, S, SR
In the first of two college-level courses, ENGL& 101, students will develop compositions, including essays and other media forms, for multiple audiences within and beyond the college. As part of developing critical awareness and analytical skills, students will read and respond to culturally diverse texts and materials. Students will practice using flexible approaches to language, formatting, and documentation that will be appropriate for future personal, career, and academic audiences. Students will develop confidence in their skills as readers, writers, and members of the college community through their work of adapting their own languages and knowledges for different audiences. Students must earn a C or better in ENGL& 101 to enroll in the second college-level composition course, ENGL 102 .
Prerequisite: YVC placement into ENGL& 101 or ENGL 095  / ABE 089  / HSC 089  with a grade of S.
