Veterans: How Should We Teach College Writing?

Are you a Veteran who has taken a college writing class (like Academic Writing for Adults, Writing Workshop, WRD 103 or 104 or English 101) since returning to school after serving in the military? 

If so, we would like your thoughts on how the teaching and learning of writing and composition can be improved for Veteran students like yourself. You are cordially invited to participate in a focus group to discuss Veteran students’ experiences with writing conducted by Michelle Navarre Cleary of DePaul University. 

Pizza dinner will be served to all volunteer participants. 

All information discussed during the focus groups will remain confidential and you will remain anonymous in any publications associated with this research. 

The three focus group dates from which you can choose to attend are: 

• Wednesday, 10/10, from 4:30 to 5:30 pm, Room 1439, Daley Building, 14 E. Jackson, Loop Campus 
• Monday, 10/15, from 4:30 pm to 5:30 pm, Room 1439, Daley Building, 14 E. Jackson, Loop Campus 
• Thursday, 10/18, from 4:30 to 5:30 pm, Room 1439, Daley Building, 14 E. Jackson, Loop Campus
