Course Description

PWR 1 courses focus on developing writing and revision strategies for rhetorical analysis and research-based arguments that draw on multiple sources. This course takes as its theme the social construct of age. Students will analyze the many ways that we use language to create, maintain, and even gatekeep categories of age, but also to subvert and transform them.
