College Writing Review


The majority of the writing I have done at OU has been for my major.  Criminology courses are typically very research and theory heavy and therefore I spent a lot of time explaining research, theories, and the applications of both.  The courses themselves were never really concerned with any kind of writing tips or grammar.  The assumption was always that we knew how to write a scholarly paper and that we would get it taken care of.  I wish that I had taken this class sooner, as it has made me a lot more grammar conscious.  The feedback and emphasis on syntax, grammar, and punctuation could have helped some of the papers I wrote in other classes and made them even better than they were.
