Literacy

The Literacy Program offers courses in reading and writing that enhance students' academic and cultural literacy. Introduction to College Writing and College Reading focus on the themes Sound and Sensibility; Movies and Memory; Image and Imagination; and Performance and Power. The Literacy Program is also the home of "Sharing Cultures," a trans-national online collaboration between basic writing courses at Columbia College and the University of Port Elizabeth, South Africa. In addition to these courses, the Literacy Program also plans and coordinates the English component of the Bridge program and the English department's retention efforts.
