Students will be given the opportunity to read models of good expository and argumentative prose and to learn the techniques of good writing. These include choosing appropriate subjects, developing restricted, unified and precise theses and presenting supporting evidence in a logical, lucid and effective manner. To achieve this end, students write no fewer than six essays and read at least five works, two of which are book length. |
