English 201 is a 3-credit, intermediate level, general education writing course that satisfies the university's Communications B requirement for enhancing students' literacy skills.

Enrollment in English 201 assumes that a student has successfully completed or been exempted from the"Communication A" requirement.

Each section is capped at 19 students; English 201 is a low-enrollment course that depends on student participation. It is designed to develop skills in the four modes of literacy: reading, writing, speaking, and listening. This course places special attention on writing, requiring numerous assignments of multiple pages, each developed through extensive planning, drafting, revising,and editing.

Each section of the course treats a single issue, problem, or theme (or set of issues, problems, or themes) in depth, giving students the opportunity not just to work on general processes of reading and writing but to be initiated into the complex discursive practices of a particular literate community struggling with particular intellectual, cultural, and practical problems.

Consequently, despite their common satisfaction of Comm-B criteria, English 201 sections vary widely from teacher to teacher.
