Hi Peter,<BR>
<BR>
Feel free to steal the idea. You may need to have shirts that say<BR>
something like "Accelerated Learning; Decelerated Drama"!<BR>
<BR>
Yours for a drama-free department,<BR>

Crisis?! Yikes. Our new department head wants to get t-shirts printed up<BR>
that read, "No Drama!" and make them required uniform for everyone. I<BR>
love that! If only for the power of suggestion.<BR>
<BR>
I think the crew available has it covered. Totally understand. Thanks,<BR>
Peter!<BR>

The plans for the workshop sound quite interesting. I wish I had time<BR>
to join you in reading the proposals, but I am up to my neck in crises.<BR>

Hello, CBW EB--<BR>
<BR>
By now I'm sure the roar of the new semester is upon you, but we wanted<BR>
to touch base with you about CBW and the rest.<BR>
<BR>
Update 1: Our open CFP for CBW 2011 resulted in about 10 proposals, the<BR>
vast majority of which bring new BW voices into our organization and<BR>
contribute to the conversation in some fresh and important ways. Given<BR>
that we have set aside two Open Panels and a Roundtable Discussion for<BR>
the presentations resulting from our open call, we can actually<BR>
accommodate all of them and we'd like to. But we want to be certain the<BR>
proposals we have meet EB approval.<BR>
<BR>
Request 1: Are some of you available to review this handful of short<BR>
proposals to determine if any should be rejected or redirected? We have<BR>
two options for accepted presenters: (1) present to the entire CBW<BR>
Workshop during one of the Open Panels (one in morning, one in<BR>
afternoon) or (2) present at one of our Roundtables during the<BR>
Roundtable Discussion at the end of the day. All presenters were asked<BR>
to limit their proposed presentations to 8-10 minutes, so any proposal<BR>
submitted can accommodate either format (traditional panel--up to 4 per<BR>
panel; roundtable--as many as we like).<BR>
<BR>
We'd like to notify those who submitted by next week, if possible. We<BR>
expect to hear back from CCCC about proposal by September as well, and<BR>
it would be nice to cluster our CBW notifications with theirs. In the<BR>
meantime, I'll ask our graduate students here on my campus to help us<BR>
sort potential placement of proposed sessions on our CBW 2011 workshop<BR>
schedule, bringing like themes together and offering a fresh, sometimes<BR>
relatively new-to-the-field perspective to the conference.<BR>
<BR>
Update 2: BWe! At long, long last, BWe is live<BR>
(<A HREF="http://orgs.tamu-commerce.edu/BWe">http://orgs.tamu-commerce.edu/BWe</A>). We are very proud of this Double<BR>
Issue and the new infrastructure of Associate Editors it introduces. For<BR>
that and so much more, we have you to thank! So thanks: for your amazing<BR>
work, insight, generosity, and patience. For the long, long delay, . . .<BR>
I must should the lion's share of the blame on that one. In the last few<BR>
months I've been buying a new home, moving, preparing for a wedding,<BR>
finishing up an NEH grant application (weren't awarded), and some other<BR>
good stuff. The professional/personal balance has been one I'm working<BR>
to figure out. But it's out now!<BR>
<BR>
Update 3: Barbara Gleason is Editor for the next BWe Special Issue on<BR>
multimodal composing. Check out the call for submissions and see if that<BR>
doesn't get you excited!<BR>
<BR>
Thanks, all!<BR>
Shannon (and Hannah)<BR>
