GC Composition & Rhetoric Community (GCCRC)

The Graduate Center Composition and Rhetoric Community (GCCRC), a DSC-chartered organization, is comprised of a diverse group of students and faculty interested in not only what texts say, but how they say it, and how they come to say it – in short, how they are composed. This interdisciplinary group has been of particular interest to those who are teaching while pursuing their degrees because of our commitment to exploring writing-centered pedagogies, offering a support network for new and continuing graduate student instructors and hands-on training sessions for anyone interested. The GCCRC aims to foster discussions of writing studies and composition theory alongside our own local classroom experiences; these important connections between theory and practice regularly develop into extended discussions that group members have presented at national conferences.

Environmental Humanities Syllabus Project

  • Posted by Kaitlin Mondello on October 8, 2018 at 2:55 pm

    The Ecocriticism Group invites you to our syllabus building workshop at noon on Friday, October 12th. It will be held from 12-2pm in room 8301. We will provide lunch. The goal of the workshop is to pool our collective knowledge for the production of a climate action syllabus to be published online. We welcome those who have taught topics in the environmental humanities, as well as those who have not. We ask only that participants come to the workshop prepared to discuss what a syllabus on climate change might look like. (What readings would you assign? What would the main course goals/problems be?) If you can\’t make it to the meeting but have ideas for the syllabus that you\’d like to share, that\’s great. Email us at catherineengh@gmail.com and katopodis.christina@gmail.com.

    All best,

    Catherine & Christina
