This is a writing-intensive course that fulfills the University's Junior Writing requirement. Each section focuses on a particular aspect of current issues in psychology. The topic is selected based on the expertise of the teaching staff. All sections share similar writing assignments, ranging from in-class short writing assignments to lengthy papers that include literature review. Classes emphasize discussion and extensive peer review of written work. Topics for individual sections will not be available until shortly before the start of the semester.

Open to juniors and seniors whose primary major is Psychology. Students on the waitlist must attend class in order to maintain their waitlist status.

Permission is required for interchange registration during all registration periods.
