First-Year Writing Seminars

First-year Writing Seminar (Cornerstone Advising Sections)

ENGL1009 & ENGL1010

The First-Year Writing Seminar fulfills the core requirement in Writing. Designed as a workshop in which each student develops a portfolio of personal and academic writing, the writing seminar features regular individual conferences with the instructor. Students write and rewrite essays continuously, discuss their works-in-progress in class, and read a wide range of texts, including various forms of nonfiction prose.

In the sections of FWS that are Cornerstone Advising Sections (designated in Eagle Apps), the instructor of the course will be the academic advisor to all Morrissey College students in that section.
