Along the path was my introduction to college writing, a class that has improved my writing skills profoundly.

However, with the guidance and instruction given to me…
Yet I feel as though my knowledge lever has increased. I have become a brighter and sharper student, especially in the English department. This senior year I was pushed harder in my English class than I ever had been before. My world was full of annotations, lectures, essays, and books.
