I have been teaching and administering introductory writing
programs at Purdue since 1981. In addition to teaching a variety of undergraduate
composition courses, I also teach in the graduate Rhetoric and Composition program. My
primary area of interest is composition pedagogy, and have regularly taught a
graduate practicum in the teaching of composition. I also teach graduate
seminars in Writing Across the Curriculum, Writing Assessment, and Composition
Research Methods. In July 2002, I began a five year term as department head.
