A Reminder to Please Recertify Your WR Courses for Fall 2015


Attention all WR-certified faculty!

A friendly reminder that any Writing Intensive (WR) course being taught during the Fall 2015 semester must be recertified as soon as possible, please.  Doing so ensures that students know which WR courses are available on the master schedule once registration opens.

To recertify your WR course, please send the following information to me, Amy Burtner (Interim Coordinator for WAC), at "
mailto:aburtner@monroecc.edu":

·         Course prefix and number
·         Course section(s)
·         CRN(s)

By recertifying your course you agree to support the WAC Objectives (
https://www.monroecc.edu/depts/wac/wac_obj.htm) and to meet the criteria for a WR class (https://www.monroecc.edu/depts/wac/criteria.htm).

The following courses do NOT need to be recertified:

·         All AHPS courses
·         All ENG courses
·         All PHL courses
·         All Honors Program courses
·         All HMN courses
·         BIO 114, 155, BIO 156, BIO 133-SLN sections
·         CHE 251, CHE 252
·         CIS 209
·         COM 130, COM 131, COM 151, COM 230
·         EDU 208
·         ESL 130, ESL 201, ESL 145
·         HIM 205, HIM 206, HIM 213
·         MTH 155, MTH 156
·         NUR 111, NUR 112, NUR 150, NUR 211, NUR 212, NUR 214
·         PPE 208, PPE 175

**If you are interested in teaching a WR course for the first time and it is not on the above list, please complete a new course proposal:

If I can assist in any way, feel free to contact me with questions, comments, or suggestions.  Your colleagues on the WAC Steering Committee are your WR liaisons, too:

Thank you for your prompt attention, and for your continued support of student writing in your classes.
