English 101X - College Reading and Composition I Plus 1-Hour Lab (3)

English 101X is a course in critical reading and prose writing designed to refine the student's skills in thinking logically, reading carefully, and writing effectively. Stress is placed on the organization and composition of objective expository essays, including the research paper. Course content is identical to English 101 with one additional lab support hour for students whose MMAP placement suggests such support is needed.
