Writing Requirement

In accordance with Arts and Sciences policy, writing assignments in upper-level philosophy courses involve a minimum of 3,000 words of college-standard English. Because of the importance placed by the department on clarity of language as essential to clarity of thought, most courses involve writing assignments in excess of the minimum. All major writing assignments are criticized and returned for revision.
