With 40+ dedicated faculty teaching 4,000+ students each year, College Writing Programs courses lay the foundation for academic success through rigorous reading, research, critical analysis, and writing. Our small interactive seminars enable us to create a classroom community where students find their voice, sharpen their speaking skills, and engage deeply in the writing process—brainstorming, composing, reflecting, revising, and presenting.
We’re proud to say that students frequently point to these courses as among the best they’ve had at Berkeley.
Your gift ensures we can keep teaching writing as a craft and public speaking as a lifelong skill—empowering students to enter the conversation and participate fully in all the university has to offer.
