To welcome students into the Brenau family, this course acclimates students to campus life and introduces them to the elements of the GOLD program. College speaking, reading, writing, and research skills are enhanced, and concepts such as the benefits of women’s education and the opportunities for women in today’s world are combined with innovative and engaging activities to launch students toward extraordinary lives. First-Year Experience is required of all Women’s College first-year, full-time students seeking an undergraduate degree. Students who have earned more than 24 transfer credit hours from an accredited college or university are exempt from this requirement. Dual enrollment and other alternate credit does not exempt students from this requirement. Note: this course is offered only on the historic Gainesville campus. This course is designated as a “W” course. W courses emphasize the experience and expertise of women throughout course design and delivery. Students will identify and analyze the contributions and experiences of women. At least 50% of course activities, readings, and assessments emphasize and explore female experience, perspective, or expertise.
