ASC Handouts
The articles on the ASC website have been created for seminary
students and
their particular concerns. The site can also be a useful
tool for faculty
when designing syllabi by using all or parts of articles
to explain
assignments. Additionally, faculty might want to refer
students to the
Online Writing Lab as a resource. The site is continually being updated
so visit us often for new additions to our site.
