The Association of American Colleges and Universities recently asked employers who hire at least 25 percent of their workforce from two- or four-year colleges what they want institutions to teach. The answers did not suggest a narrow focus. Instead, 89 percent said they wanted more emphasis on “the ability to effectively communicate orally and in writing,” 81 percent asked for better “critical thinking and analytical reasoning skills” and 70 percent were looking for “the ability to innovate and be creative.” KATE ZERNIKE--The New York Times, December 29, 2009 22488 Academic Writing & Research 1320 Short Denney MWF 9:00am--9:50am 22499 Academic Writing & Research 1320 Thompson Hall 102 MWF 11:00am--11:50am 22499 Academic Writing & Research 1320 Thompson Hall 102 MWF 12:00pm--12:50pm 22509 Academic Writing & Research 1320 Thompson Hall 102 MWF 2:00pm--2:50pm
