A Blog of WLN: A Journal of Writing Center Scholarship

|
To our CWCAB friends, welcome to 2020!
|
|
|
Happy New Year to our writing center friends and colleagues across the world!
|
As we enter the new year and a new semester, we wanted to take this opportunity to formally introduce ourselves as the new editors of Connecting Writing Centers across Borders, a blog of the Writing Lab Newsletter:.
|
|
|
|
Our goal is to honor and support Mickey Harris’ initial vision for the blog as “being a space that allows writing center specialists to transcend borders and share, learn, collaborate, and meet each other.” And, in the words of Josh Ambrose, who served as the Blog Editor after Mickey established it in 2014, to “explore writing center-minded narratives/approaches [that reach] across borders.”
|
|
|
All the best for the new year and happy writing, tutoring, and teaching this Spring!
