Keystone event

The Grammar, Spelling, and Punctuation Test is required of all Mass Comm majors.

Unless the GSP is successfully completed early in a student's career, graduation in four years is almost impossible.

A passing score on the GSP is a prerequisite for JOUR 2310, News Writing. ALL MAJORS take JOUR 2310, which in turn is a prerequisite for subsequent writing classes.
