COLS 101 FIRST YEAR SEMINAR
Credits: 3
Term: (F)

This course serves as an introduction to college level critical thinking based on the central theme determined each semester. A cross-disciplinary approach will study the chosen theme through the lenses of areas such as biology, culture, literature, and history both in the classroom and beyond in field trip experiences. Potential themes include (but are not limited to) the Missouri River, the classic world, and the college experience. Individual participation in writing and the spoken word are encouraged by the small class size.
