The question continues to be, “How does first-year comp teach students how to write in any particular genre?” And all I wanna ask is, “How doesn’t it?” This seems really nit-picky to me. No class will ever perfectly teach EVERYTHING that you need to know ever. That’s why, when you’re taught to develop a research question, you are told to narrow your topic. Why? Because you can’t possibly write an all-encompassing, exhaustive paper on anything. Why are we trying to make first-year comp exhaustive?
