摘要:the wac journal has been generous in offering print and online space to a series of interviews with WAC professionals. My interview for this issue, the eighth in a series that began in 2003 (all archived at The WAC Clearinghouse: wac.colostate.edu) brings Kathleen Blake Yancey to these pages at long last. If there is one TWJ reader who is unacquainted with Kathi and her work, it is high time that I help correct that deficit. A graduate of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, where she also earned her MA in English, Kathi began her career as a teacher of language arts at the middle school level. She earned her doctorate at Purdue University, completing a dissertation on a multivariable model of composing, and staying on to work in a couple of administrative capacities. Since then, she has taught at the University of North Carolina- Charlotte and at Clemson University, and is now the Kellogg W. Hunt Professor of English at Florida State University, where she directs the graduate program in rhetoric and composition and is serving her second stint as interim department chair as well.
