[CBW_Exec] FW: Sense of the House Motion for Chris Anson

[Adams, Peter D.]

What a whirlwind of basic writing for the past three days . . . and even more on tap for next year.  Way to go, CBW.  Way to go, Liz and Hannah.

I send my support and thanks as well. The sense of solidarity with basic
writing and basic writers at the conference this year was very strong. And
this will certainly last into next year as well.

I would like to add a special thanks to Peter and Lynn for their crucial
role in suggesting Mike Rose for the exemplar award. That was truly the
highlight of the conference for me and many others.

Tuesday night when we discussed this and Shannon who chimed in last night
on e-mail.  I *think* we would think this was a good thing, but didn't want
to misrepresent anyone who wasn't part of the conversation.
