Writing Programs Textbooks

TEXTBOOKS LIST 2016-17

Please note that it is Writing Programs policy that all classes use a rhetoric. If you choose to use a reader, you must also use a rhetoric. All textbooks must meet the goals and objectives of the Writing Programs.

Please note that Writing Programs requires the use of non-fiction readings only. Even though some of the textbooks on this “approved” list include works of imaginative literature, do not use or assign those texts in a Writing Programs class.

Books approved to be used in one course should not be used in another—for example, a book used in ENG 216 should not be used in ENG 102 and vice versa.
