Pacific Northwest Writing Centers Association Sixth Annual Conference

April 17-18, 2009
Ellensburg, Washington
What’s Central? Moving Toward the Bull’s-Eye in our Writing Centers

Proposal Deadline: February 17, 2009

At Central Washington University, we will gather centrifugally and centripetally—from the center out and the outside in—between mountains and dry plains, dams and wind farms, pine trees and fruit orchards, to examine the collaborative forces that push and pull us.

Attached is the report given by Teresa Kramer to IWCA about our regional association.

Please note that you'll need to log in to the site in order to view the attachment.
