Hi everyone,<div>I've been reading this exchange with great interest and, as many others have already said, I think it's such an important discussion and one I'm glad we are having.</div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>I have been chewing on something that I want to toss out, albeit reluctantly, a tension I struggle with in my professional life and that this discussion has brought back to mind. I'm thinking here of Sharon Crowley's work and the work of others who have called for the abolition of the introductory writing requirement, and by extension, the BW course. (I would also include Bartholomae's "Tidy House" here and more recently Soliday's work). In my reading of it, the critique hinges on BW's role in normalizing student writing, in bringing it into conformity with some abstract notion of "the standard" by eradicating what is non-standard, non-conventional or non-native thereby maintaining a system of educational inequality. According to this critique, BW is simply too tied up with the maintenance of educational, cultural and linguistic inequality for us to claim its innocence. </div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>I know, I know.....I too am still committed to that story we love to tell (as Bartholomae puts it) about BW's role in securing equal educational opportunity and access, but on my campus at least, I can't ignore how BW serves an institutional function tied to other institutional functions, such as standardized placement testing, graduation assessments of written English proficiency, uniform standards of achievement, in short, BW's role in re-producing the status quo.</div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>Just thought I'd brighten your day with the cheery thoughts going through my head.</div><div>Sugie</div><div><br><div><div>On Apr 29, 2008, at 12:40 PM, Ribble, Marcia (ribbleml) wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"> <div id="idOWAReplyText54803" dir="ltr"> <div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" color="#000000" size="2">Hi All,</font></div> <div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div> <div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2">To complicate things a bit, I'd like to suggest that we're not fully understanding the</font></div> <div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2">causal chains leading to students who are underprepared for college writing if we</font></div> <div dir="ltr"><font face="Arial" size="2">equate being in basic writing with being in a state of deprivation or injustice.

Very, very good points (and poignantly articulated). As Soliday's work has shown (I'm convinced), the very existence of basic writing programs serves the institutional need to stratify more than it does the student's individual needs as writers (see _The Politics of Remediation_). She isn't suggesting that we rid our universities of basic writing programs because that'd only block student access in more significant ways. But it is important that we remember how very complex and socially embedded issues of social justice always are.

I like very much the way Peter has articulated this complexity below (inviting and diplomatic and smart and real).

Many of us have worked for years in basic writing programs that we believe are part of the solution to social injustice. However, I think, painful as it may be, that we must be willing to consider the possibility that the programs we have developed and labored in for years may, in fact, not be reducing social injustice. I raise this possibility because of the very low retention rates and success rates in many developmental writing programs, including my own. <br><br>It is certainly a good thing for us to raise issues about social injustice in the wider world and in higher education in general, but I think we have an important obligation to examine our own (tidy) house, to see if we are part of the problem. Perhaps we are not. Perhaps my concern is misplaced. But I do think we have an obligation to examine seriously the extent to which basic writing programs may contribute to the failure of higher education to provide a pathway to success for disadvantaged students. We have an obligation to see whether we can revise our programs so that they truly provide a pathway to success rather than an gate that keeps large percentages of our students from achieving that success.<br><br>Peter Adams <div><span class="e" id="q_1199ab6c3956ecb5_1"><br><br><br>-----Original Message-----<br>From: <a href="mailto:cbw_exec-bounces@tamu-commerce.edu" target="_blank">cbw_exec-bounces@tamu-commerce.edu</a> on behalf of Susan Bernstein<br>Sent: Tue 4/29/2008 10:22 AM<br>To: Shannon Carter<br>Cc: <a href="mailto:sanchezdeborah@yahoo.com" target="_blank">sanchezdeborah@yahoo.com</a>; <a href="mailto:cbw_exec@tamu-commerce.edu" target="_blank">cbw_exec@tamu-commerce.edu</a>; Ashley,Hannah<br>Subject: Re: [CBW_Exec] draft of CBW Social Justice Policy<br><br>Thanks, everyone!

These<br>> conditions point to lack of adequate and sufficient access to<br>> resources that would aid full matriculation to college, including but<br>> not limited to:<br>> ? Insufficient access to preparation for college-level courses based<br>> on systemic educational inequities in public schools<br>> ? Insufficient access to financial aid counseling<br>> ?
