Description

First Year Inquiry is a required course for all first-year students at Franklin Pierce University. Students select one of approximately twenty academically-engaging, inquiry-based topics based on their interests. Each section, regardless of theme, works on improving students' academic skills, and addresses three goals of a Franklin Pierce Education---information literacy, inquiry and analysis, and career exploration. Readings, writing assignments, and activities are used to stimulate thinking about inquiry and decisions about students' possible career opportunities. Students may not withdraw from the course; they may repeat it in the spring of the freshmen year. Students must pass this course to demonstrate proficiency in the skills coded for this course. Students who do not pass the course a second time may take GLE103 as a substitute for GLE101. Addresses GLE Learning Outcomes Career Exploration, Inquiry & Analysis and Information Literacy
