AVA

This blog is dedicated to helping veterans, active duty service members and future service members succeed in academia. While we initially organized out of"Writing with Current, Former, and Future Members of the Military" Special Interest Group at the 2011Conference on College Composition and Communication, we welcome instructors and allies in all disciplines. This is an open group, and all are welcome.

"Many people put veterans in a box, labeling them with terms that do not fit; "they've got issues", "uptight", "a little off", it's not fair and I wish people would take the time to see past these stereotypes, and peal the labels off. Most of the veterans I know are highly motivated, smart, dedicated men and women that are much more focused on school and real life issues. I wish you the best in learning how to teach and write with veterans. We need professors like you, who are willing to challenge and encourage us as regular college students just like everyone else"

C’s Workshop Proposal Draft at EtherPad


I created a very rough workshop proposal by rewording Chris Anson’s C’s CFP to reflect the issues raised at panels and our SIG meeting. The list is long with several overlaps. I hope we can narrow the list down to a smaller number of major themes. I also hope many of us will submit individual proposals or collaborate on panels. This is just conversation starter, so Please! Please! add/change/tweak cut as you like.
Clicking on this link (http://ietherpad.com/ewY7cikwJI) will take you the proposal at Etherpad.

EtherPad is a web-based word processor. Similar to Google Docs, multiple people can contribute to the document and all changes are archived. Each contributor’s changes show up in a new color. It can be edited synchronously or asynchronously.Please pass share this link as you like. If interested, it’s possible to make this online document private.

I propose a Wednesday morning half-day workshop. What do you all think?
