Writing on the Edge is back and bigger and better than ever! Our fourth annual Writing on the Edge Conference is set for Saturday, October 20th, at College of DuPage. This year, we are opening up the conference to any faculty that uses writing in their classes. We are very interested in how writing is used across the curriculum and invite you to come experience the only writing conference put on by and for adjuncts and contingent faculty in the Midwest. We have it competitively priced at only $35 for a whole day of professional development. We will have a keynote speaker on writing across the curriculum, and breakout sessions given by fellow instructors.
We are looking for interactive proposals that show how you use writing in the classroom and beyond and the particular insights, advantages, and disadvantages of being an adjunct. The call for proposals is below and also attached. Please consider putting in a proposal this year, and also sending this on to anyone you think would benefit from this conference. Preference will be given to adjunct and contingent faculty, but full time faculty can submit proposals, too!
Proposals are due by Friday, June 15th. Hope to hear from you soon!
