LAS 12525 FIRST-YEAR SEMINAR (3)
The first-year seminar is designed to evoke questions, to develop habits of mind that lead to independent thinking, and to orient students to the academic realities of college. Discussion and small group work are emphasized. Reading and focused writing assignments will be required. The thematic focus for individual sections is determined by instructors; students rank their preferences and are assigned to one of their top three choices.
