      Writing Program Administration

      Series Editors: Susan H. McLeod and Margot Soven

      The Writing Program Administration series provides a venue for scholarly monographs and projects that are research- or theory-based and that provide insights into important issues in the field. We encourage submissions that examine the work of writing program administration, broadly defined (e.g., not just administration of first-year composition programs). Possible topics include but are not limited to 1) historical studies of writing program administration or administrators (archival work is particularly encouraged); 2) studies evaluating the relevance of theories developed in other fields (e.g., management, sustainability, organizational theory); 3) studies of particular personnel issues (e.g., unionization, use of adjunct faculty); 4) research on developing and articulating curricula; 5) studies of assessment and accountability issues for WPAs; and 6) examinations of the politics of writing program administration work at the community college.

      Dedications

      To my mentors, especially Pat, Shirley, Bud, Linda, and Nancy, who taught me that my questions mattered, to my coauthors who taught me that questions are richer when asked and answered together, and to Karl for being the best one.

      —AFS

      To my feminist mentors—Elizabeth, Hepsie, Nancy, and Jody—for teaching me early on about the need for balance. To my coauthors for making me think and laugh. To Cima and Eva for their furry friendship. To John for everything else.

      —KR

      To my mentors—Pat, Victor, Shirley, and Bud—for being steadfast and humane in their guidance, and for treating their students as full-fledged participants in the field. To A, C, J, and K for taking this project on. To Eric, for always making space for me to write.

      —TSG

      To Shirley, Dick, Donna, Bud, and Gerry, for living what this book is about before I could articulate it. To those who have or will have the passion and conviction to embrace administrative work, most especially my four coauthors. To my mom and my sweet loves, Duncan, Ian, and Colin, who remind me what matters when I need it most. And especially to my dad, who would have told everyone he knew about his baby girl’s book.

      —JC

      To Mom and Dad, for the Zen of it all. To my partners in crime, for the comingling of voices. To Shirley, for asking me why I was here. And to J, for being the best answer I will ever think of.

      —CC
