ENGW 3304 Experiences

Andrew Florendo (BSBA ’22, Finance & Computer Science minor):“My biggest takeaways from this course were becoming more concise in my writing and more mindful of the audience every time I write. [. . .] Organizing my thoughts in fewer words than usual has also allowed me to become more detailed and alert when I’m revising and editing as well.” Read more.
