The reading and writing program
provides a supportive environment (with small classes and
trained professionals) with the aim of preparing all students
for success in the full college curriculum. The skills developed
in these courses are helpful for students who have been out
of school for a period of time or for students who have not
been able to maximize their ability to learn. Active student
learning is fostered through classroom discussions, collaborative
peer interactions, and an integration of reading and writing.

Mission Statement:
Reading and writing are complex processes, both individual
and social, that develop over time with continued practice
and informed guidance. The Reading/Writing Department is
committed to using current theory to place, teach, and assess
academic English literacy. Our goal is to provide a supportive
environment (small classes and trained professionals) with
the aim of preparing all students for success in the full
college curriculum. Active student learning is fostered
through classroom discussions, collaborative peer interactions,
and an integration of reading and writing. All courses have
a consistent curriculum as well as exit criteria that are
reviewed on a regular basis.
