"A Brief History of Creative Flux: GTA Preparation at the University of Alabama"

As part of the SEC Faculty Exchange grant, Lucas Niiler (Director, First Year Writing Program, University of Alabama) and his team are coming to the department to observe our program and exchange thoughts about ePortfolios, curriculum, teacher training, and the rest. The FYC administrative team (Drs. Desmet, Miller, and Steger) will go to Tuscaloosa in November for a return site visit.

Please come and welcome our SEC colleagues from UA and think together with us about how to improve FYC and writing for ourselves and our students. Everyone teaching or just interested in FYC--Instructors, TAs, faculty, and apprentices—are warmly invited!
