Welcome to English 131 online.  I look forward to working with you in the course.  Please go to my web site.  Under the "current events" heading, you will find a link to specific information on the course, including:

How the course works

Promise to turn in original and authentic work

Permission to publish

Directions to my office

Note: the "95 percent online" means 5 percent of the course involves your coming to campus.  You will need to come to campus to write a proctored impromptu on one, possibly two occasions.  The impromptu will be in the Learning Lab.  I will give you advance notice. 

The textbook for the course is, Longman Writer: Rhetoric, Reader, Handbook, 7th ed.

To be in good standing in this course, you need the proper prerequisite, which is a satisfactory test score or a passing grade in English 093.  If you took this course thinking you would have the prerequisite and then something happened, you will need to drop the class.
