[CBW_Exec] CBW 2013--Important to READ and REPLY ALL! REPLY ALL! REPLY ALL!

Wed Apr 18 11:40:03 CDT 2012

Hello everyone,

Welcome to new executive board members, many thanks to Hannah for her
leadership over the past two years, and thanks and congratulations to
Sugie, who will be a wonderful co-chair with Liz, who has done such a great
job so far. Also, Laura, welcome back to you. It's great to hear that
you'll be able to attend the CBW workshop next year. Unfortunately, I won't
be there since CCCC 2013 conflicts with the CUNY Pipeline Program's annual
conference. As sad as I will be to miss CCCC next year, I'm very pleased as
plans for the CBW workshop evolve. These are such important issues and
really the major focus of my new post-retirement job as faculty consultant
for the Pipeline Program. The goal of this program, which has actually been
in existence since 1991, is to increase diversity in the professoriate with
a substantial mentoring program for academically strong and motivated
students from underrepresented groups who are interested in careers in
college teaching and research. I'm reminded of the continuing need for such
programs every time I attend a national conference like CCCC. So I really
hope we can attract a more diverse group of participants and poster
presenters for the 2013 CBW workshop.

All the suggestions as to possible people to reach out to seem excellent. I
think Ian Marshall would probably be pleased to be invited and would just
point out that his recent book is co-authored with Wendy Ryden of LIU in
Long Island, who is also on the *JBW* editorial review board. I imagine she
would appreciate the invitation as well.

Warm regards to all,

Rebecca
