Welcome to ENGL 1101: English Composition I.

ENGL 1101 teaches students to be engaged and critical college-level readers and writers. ENGL 1101 is an intensive writing course; plan to read and write for every class. Students will complete several formal essays, keep a writing journal, analyze and interpret texts, discourse about current social issues, research and support ideas, collaborate and peer-edit, and learn the foundations for effective communication and ethical participation in college and beyond.

For a head start on how to approach all work in this course, see “How to Do Well in My Class” and “Research & Response.” Check the CompFAQ for writing assistance.

Before you begin, take a moment and familiarize yourself with the general resources I have for students. All of these may be found in the “For Students” menu at the top of the page, or you can just begin on the student start page. These pages are designed to help you succeed in this class. While you may not read everything, you should know what’s available if you need it.

Please read this document and those it links to carefully at the beginning of the semester. There is much information to process, and it can be somewhat daunting — especially if you read cursorily. If you are confused, do your best to work through it by (re)reading this document carefully and completely, searching this site, or consulting the FAQ. I promise, there is an answer to your question. If all else fails, you may contact me. Trust yourself to follow directions and find the answers. Be careful and deliberate.

COVID-19

The University System of Georgia recognizes COVID-19 vaccines offer safe, effective protection and urges all students, faculty, staff and visitors to get vaccinated; however, it is an individual decision to receive the vaccine and will not be required to be a part of our campuses. Everyone is encouraged to wear a mask or face covering while inside campus facilities. Unvaccinated individuals are strongly encouraged to get a vaccine, to continue wearing a face covering, and to continue socially distancing from others when possible. Updated protocols for isolation and quarantine will be in effect this semester in order to mitigate further spread of the coronavirus on our campuses. USG guidance is subject to change based on recommendations from GA DPH. MGA will remain flexible in their planning and be prepared to change course as necessary. MGA will continue to provide updated information.

Masks

Since we are still under threat of COVID-19—the percentage of infection is higher now than it was last year, I would like to strongly encourage you to wear a mask in class and get vaccinated if you have not done so. This request is for your safety, and also for the safety of the rest of the class, your community, and our families.

⭐️ If you need a mask, your may get one for free in the English Department, SoAL-201. ⭐️
