摘要:rita malenczyk and i met—and bonded—at the workshop for new writing program administrators (WPAs) at the 1998 National Council of Writing Program Administrators Conference in Tucson, Arizona. In July. The heat was devastating, especially for a wimpy northerner like me. Rita did better than I, which is a testament to her overall toughness. At that time, she was an assistant professor at Eastern Connecticut State University; now, in 2011, Rita has been a full professor for some years, with a host of professional accomplishments to her credit.
