Charter Oak Cornerstone Class Research Paper - GreggT67 - 11-27-2012
I'm planning on taking the IDS 101 Cornerstone Seminar in the spring. I've read the syllabus and what is involved with the research paper. Are you given guidelines on the subject matter? How many words or pages is it expected to be?
Charter Oak Cornerstone Class Research Paper - Jonathan Whatley - 11-27-2012
Well effective next semester, Spring 2013, Charter Oak is revising the Cornerstone Seminar. Credit for English Composition I or equivalent will now be a prerequisite, and some 'welcome to Charter Oak' stuff will be spun off into a non-credit online orientation.
Cornerstone will have a stronger focus on preparation for upper-level academic writing. (Even if you bring in 114 or more credits, there's still the paper for the Capstone course.) So specific points of Cornerstone writing requirements may change. I'd ask an admissions advisor for a sense of the 2013- requirements.
