    Surviving Work

    (rules as they come to me)

    1. If a meeting has a specified end time, leave at that time, even if the meeting isn't over.
    2. If a meeting does not have a specified end time, call the meeting convener and ask when the meeting will end. Leave at the specified end time.
    3. Bring something to work on in case the meeting starts late.

    what went right

    posted Friday, 21 November 2008

    It’s been an exhausting week, starting with some personal drama and ending with the death of an old friend. In between, a few good things happened:

    • I got funded for CCCC.
    • Curriculum I proposed was passed at the department level. Not the new media course, which I am now revising after talking to a couple colleagues, but a course called Writing Theory and Practice which includes a Writing Center practicum.
    • We had one good, cold, gray, wintry day. Finally. I am really craving some late autumn/early winter weather.
    • I hatched what may be a brilliant plan to record a “This American Life”-style audio essay about Writing Center work and tutorials to help faculty better understand what happens in a tutorial.
