Writing is integral to the liberal arts curriculum at Bethany College. Therefore, the Bethany Written Communication Trail Marker is a multiple activity program spread across the student’s entire college career. To fulfill the requirement, students must complete a minimum of four courses designated as writing-intensive (WI), including:
- ENGL 101 and 102 with a C- or higher. Students placing in ENGL 102, as a result of either an AP credit or the written placement test administered by Bethany College, must enroll in and successfully complete ENGL 102 to fulfill the 100-level requirement.
-
At least two of the four courses must be at the 300- or 400-level. WI courses are proposed by faculty and approved by the Director of the Writing in the Disciplines (WID). A list of courses so designated may be obtained from the Office of the Registrar or the Director of WID. The required word counts and the course size capacities are to be determined with the approval of the Director of Writing Across the Disciplines.
