What is the Writing Across the Curriculum (WAC) requirement?
The WAC requirement is a graduation requirement for all Penn State students. Its intent is to ensure that students complete a 3 credit writing intensive course selected from “W” courses offered by their major or college. All College of Communications majors offer “W” courses, except the Film & Video major. Currently, students in the Film & Video major are permitted by the College to use COMM 346 (Writing for the Screen I) as a substitution for the WAC requirement.
