Welcome
Welcome to Business Writing, an upper-level writing course in the BAS in Supervision and Management program. Throughout the course, we will focus on writing skills relevant to professional communication. We’ll cover the major genres used in business writing and survey the methods and distinctive features of effective professional communication. My goal is for you to leave this course ready to write persuasive memos, reports, and letters in the workplace and effective essays, case studies, and correspondence within the BAS program of study.
My office hours can be found on my faculty webpage at http://tinyurl.com/93frzwy. I encourage you to contact me if you plan to come by, as I’m often in meetings on campus. I am happy to meet with you on campus, via telephone, or via Skype. Please email or call if you’d like to make those arrangements. I will do my best to return phone calls within 24 hours.
