- WRI 207: Community InfrastructuresThe 200-level writing seminars give transfer students the opportunity to expand upon their previous writing instruction for assignments at Princeton and in preparation for junior and senior independent work. Students begin the term with a self-assessment and collectively identify the tools a successful academic writer needs. Writing assignments build towards a self-directed research project and the term ends with a reimagining of that project as a junior paper proposal. All work in the course will guide students towards identifying the necessary methods and resources to produce strong work as a rising practitioner in their field.
