Why should I take a WAC course instead of an English course to fulfill the third writing requirement?
A. Both English and WAC courses will teach you how to write more effectively. However, a WAC course in your major can show you how to write like professionals in your field. For example, in a WAC biology course, you can learn how to write like a biologist. At the same time, the WAC assignments can help you read and think more carefully about the subject you are studying.
