This Spring
edition of the PWR Newsletter is focused on the students of Stanford
University. As instructors, we naturally interact with our students
in the classroom, our offices, and the Writing Center. However,
we likewise support these young scholars as they venture into
research and publication beyond the Farm. We are therefore devoting
this edition to highlighting some of the more extraordinary achievements
in student-teacher interactions: from awarding our students’
exemplary work to facilitating student discourse across continents.
The faculty of the Program in Writing and Rhetoric is of course
committed to scholarly exploration in our program and our field,
but first and foremost to our students. To honor that, we present
this Newsletter.
I have been
very fortunate to be the editor of this publication, and a member
of this outstanding group of instructors, this year. Before passing
the reins, I’d like to personally thank former editor Mark
Feldman and web editors Christine Alfano and Corinne Arraez for
their contributions and guidance. And of course, I’d like
to acknowledge the always inspirational direction of Andrea Lunsford
and Marvin Diogenes. On behalf of all the instructors devoted
to their students, I welcome you to share our success.
