Most people will tell you that all they want out of life is to be happy, but not many can tell you how to get there. This aim of this course is to prepare you for college level writing while exploring the science behind happiness. Through this course, we will learn the basics of effective composition, with a focus on the creation of complex, analytic, and well-supported arguments that matter in academic contexts. You will be asked to use a range of material to inspire your regular writing assignments, ranging from academic readings to active participation in events occurring in or around campus.
