Analytical Writing Program 

The Analytical Writing Program (AWP) offers courses that employ a student-centered philosophy. Every class discussion and assignment is designed with the idea of helping students grow as writers. AWP creates an environment in which a diverse population of students can come together as a community to work on a common goal: improving their writing.
