UNTENURED FACULTY AS WRITING PROGRAM ADMINISTRATORS examines the
politics of junior faculty appointments to positions as writing
program administrators from historical, contextual, and personal
perspectives. A central aim of this provocative book is to accept
and reconcile the tension between the Council of Writing Program
Administrators' position statement and current institutional
practices. Contributors include graduate students full of desire
and ambition, untenured faculty who actively pursued administrative
appointments (jWPAs) and now reflect on their decisions, and senior
administrators whose experience authorizes their arguments for or
against jWPA appointments. The collection brings theory to bear on
the jWPA situation as the chapters move beyond victim narratives to
examine these controversial issues head on. The contributors to
UNTENURED FACULTY AS WRITING PROGRAM ADMINISTRATORS are Roxanne
Cullen, Debra Frank Dew, Suellynn Duffey, Joseph Eng, Rebecca
Taylor Fremo, Richard C. Gebhardt, Brenda M. Helmbrecht, Alice
Horning, Connie Kendall, Sandee K. McGlaun, Jackie Grutsch
McKinney, Ruth Mirtz, Martha D. Patton, Paul Ranieri, Martha A.
Townsend, Jo Ann Vogt, and Edward M. White. DEBRA FRANK DEW is an
assistant professor of English and director of the writing program
at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, where she has
directed the program since 2000. ALICE S. HORNING is a professor of
rhetoric and linguistics at Oakland University, where she has
directed the Rhetoric Program since 1998. LAUER SERIES IN RHETORIC
AND COMPOSITION Edited by Patricia Sullivan and Catherine Hobbs
