<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>My Writing Zones program (a collaboration with local high schools, using West Chester undergrads as writing center mentors, with a goal of college access support) has continued this year.

The project will probably have to downscale from the three high schools we currently serve, but maybe move to a district with higher-needs students.</FONT></DIV>
