Composing in 2006

Welcome back fellow composers. I hope everyone had a great break and a smooth transition to the new year. I'm sure that you can feel the coming semester and are busily working on finalizing your syllabi and gearing up for Part II of the 2005-2006 academic year.

I thought I'd take this opportunity to remind everyone that the Composing Reading Group (CRG) will have it's first meeting of the 2006 spring semester on Tuesday, January 24th, from 11-12 noon in LY 207. At our last meeting of the fall semester, we decided to read Pegeen Reichert Powell's article, "Critical Discourse Analysis and Composition Studies: A Study of Presidential Discourse and Campus Discord." As usual, the article is available on eReserve as well as in the Composing Reading Group binder in the English Department mailroom.

Looking forward to seeing all of you then!
