English term or phrase:composition 115
"Travis, Tammy and Shane, from Composition 115, were sitting together on a leather bench in the lobby of my apartment building. The three of them had attended the same one-room schoolhouse, and they constituted the majority of their graduating class."
Il s'agit donc manifestement d'un cours, mais que signifie le chiffre 115 ?
Explanation: Le chiffre n'est que le numéro d'identification du cours (d'après le catalogue de cours offert).

Voici la signification des chiffres utilisés pour identifier les cours à l\'Université du Nébraska:
Courses numbered from 100 to 151 are first-year composition courses.
The numbering system provides additional guidance to types of courses. For example, middle-digit 5 courses, like 150, 252, 354, are all writing courses, including creative writing. Here is a quick guide to the numbering system:
A middle digit of \"0\" indicates courses in types of literature, such as short story (303), poetry (202), drama (4/801), or fiction (205).
A middle digit of \"1\" indicates special thematic courses or courses examining literature in relation to particular issues (several women\'s literature courses, Plains Literature, Illness and Health in Literature, for example). Et la liste est très longue. Voir: http://www.unl.edu/english/courses/descriptions/CDuF05.htm
Explanation: Advanced First-Year Composition 115 (FYC 115, FYC 115M)
An optional course for those who have AP credit for FYC 110 and want to enhance their writing skills; there are a limited number of spaces.
