Second Year Seminars (SYS) Course Descriptions

 

Catalog Description:

Second Year Seminars (SYS) are speaking-intensive (298) or writing intensive (299) topic courses that build on the academic skills and habits introduced in the First Year Seminar. SYS courses engage students in a specific academic area of interest and provide them with the opportunity to reinforce, share and interpret knowledge. Students will improve their speaking, reading, research, and information and technology skills while building the connections between scholarship and action that are required for lifelong learning. These courses will fulfill the Second Year Seminar requirement and may fulfill other requirements for the Core Curriculum. Each course may fulfill different requirements and topics may change each semester. Only one SYS course may be taken for credit.

Prerequisites for 298 courses: First Year Seminar or more than 24 earned credits, ENGL 101 and either COMM 130 or THEA 210. These courses are speaking intensive.

Prerequisites for 299 courses: First Year Seminar or more than 24 earned credits, ENGL 101 and ENGL 102. These courses are writing intensive.

Students with 54 or more transfer credits will have this requirement waived.
