Academic Bulletin Description
An exploration of four communication competencies: reading, writing, speaking, and listening.

The use of reading and listening to interpret ideas of others and form one’s own will be applied toward thesis-driven written and spoken texts. The topical material covered in the seminar varies from section to section and year to year. All first-year students take Introduction to Communication Competencies in either their first or second semester. Must be taken on the letter-grade basis. Credits: 4. Distribution Requirements: None.
