Classroom

A record-setting 72 participants joined us for the 2008 Writing in Place conference Aug. 1-3 on the campus of Wofford College. We have just uploaded photos -- see the top left of this page -- of some of the great activities during the weekend, including a panel discussion, lots of intense classtime, a great keynote banquet at Hub-Bub, and Sunday morning short sessions. Thanks go to an amazing faculty: Tommy Hays, Betsy Cox, Sebastian Matthews, Peter Caster, Rick Mulkey, Jennie Neighbors, Susan Tekulve, Vera Gomez, Patrick Whitfill, John Lane, Rosa Shand, and Lyn Riddle.

Please join us next year July 31 - Aug. 2. Details to come!
