| Introduction | CUNY Writing Fellows are advanced doctoral candidates at the Graduate Center, in most cases already working on their dissertations. Selected via formal application and campus interviews for year-long appointments (renewable for a second year), they are then trained in WAC principles and practices at CUNY-wide professional development workshops and in weekly group meetings with the BMCC WAC Coordinators. Each campus employs its Fellows somewhat differently. At BMCC, they are partnered with individual faculty newly implementing Writing Intensive courses; they are also available as consultants to other teachers who want to experiment with the use of writing or to fine-tune writing assignments they already use. |
