<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Calibri><span style='font-size:11.0pt;
font-family:Calibri'>Hi, all--<br>
<br>
I just wanted to put forward two more names for possible inclusion on our
Executive Board. <br>
<br>
The first is my colleague and regular collaborator <b><span style='font-weight:
bold'>Donna Dunbar-Odom</span></b>. She came to composition studies by way of
basic writing in the field. She taught basic writing and directed the writing
center at a regional campus in <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Indiana</st1:place></st1:State>
in the 1980s. She knew there had to be something more to teaching basic writing
than grammar drills and sentence-to-paragraph exercises. So she attended CCCC
and ended up at a panel on basic writing/reading connections with Mariolina
Salvatore, David Bartholmoe, and Anthony Petrosky. She was wowed, as you can
imagine. <br>
<br>
So she chose to enter the PhD program at Pitt to study with Barthomae and
Salvatore, both of whom ended up on her dissertation committee. <br>
<br>
As she put it when I asked if she’d be interested in throwing her hat in on
this, “Absolutely! I’d be honored. Them’s my roots!”<br>
<br>
More on Donna can be found at <a
href="http://www.tamu-commerce.edu/litlang/dunbar-odom.asp?menuName=people&pageName=faculty">http://www.tamu-commerce.edu/litlang/dunbar-odom.asp?menuName=people&pageName=faculty</a><br>
<br>
The other is our new Director of the <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:PlaceName w:st="on">Writing</st1:PlaceName>
<st1:PlaceType w:st="on">Center</st1:PlaceType></st1:place> and the Basic
Writing Program (beginning Fall 2009): Tabetha Adkins. She’s doing some
fascinating work in new media and, especially, Amish literacies (the subject of
her dissertation). Lots of really exciting work on ethics in ethnography and
fabulously interesting ways to integrate the student’s lived experiences into
the composition classroom. At <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:PlaceType w:st="on">University</st1:PlaceType>
of <st1:PlaceName w:st="on">Louisville</st1:PlaceName></st1:place>, she
studied basic writing with Bruce Horner and Min Zhan-Lu. She’ll have tons to
add as well, especially as she takes over our basic writing program here at
A&M-Commerce. <br>
<br>
Her vita is available online at <a
href="http://tabethaadkins.com/main/page_curriculum_vitae.html">http://tabethaadkins.com/main/page_curriculum_vitae.html</a><br>
<br>
What cha think? Can we add these two members to our crew? Not only are they
both wicked smart and committed to at-risk students. They are both SO much fun!
<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
