THE UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON’S ACADEMIC SUPPORT PROGRAM is offering four different sections Spring Quarter 2012 titled, “Immigration and Higher Education: What is an American?”, “Genetic Engineering: Moral and Ethical Issues”, “Identity and Graphic Novels: Visual Storytelling” and “Race, Class and Gender in Sports Media”.These courses are great for freshmen, sophomore, and transfer students who are interested in improving their academic performance. Through these courses, students will be presented with interesting course material and will learn strategies to improve their note-taking, essay writing, reading, and study skills.
