Thanks, RSA leaders, for saying it. I hope the powers that be at @ncte.org are listening to their peers more carefully than they seem to be listening to their members.

The Disability Studies Standing Group of Cs also put out a statement
Statement reading: The Disability Studies Standing Group (DSSG) of the Conference on College Composition and Communication (CCCC) joins our colleagues across the field in expressing our deep concern regarding NCTE leadership’s reported plans to dissolve CCCC and integrate its work into NCTE’s College Section. While the exact status and future of CCCC remain unclear, we are alarmed by the lack of transparency surrounding this decision-making process and by the absence of meaningful communication and consultation with CCCC officers, Committees and Committee chairs, Standing Groups, Task forces, and the broader CCCC membership.

For DSSG in particular, CCCC has provided an essential scholarly home for researchers, teachers, and activists working at the intersections of critical disability studies, disability rhetoric, and composition studies. Through CCCC’s support of Standing Groups, DSSG has developed and sustained mentoring relationships, maintained shared resources, coordinated disability-focused panels and workshops, advocated for access, and built a community for scholars whose work has historically been marginalized within academic institutions. 

The proposal to dissolve CCCC’s - especially without the communication and collaboration necessary to safeguard and sustain the organization’s long history of knowledge- and resource-building - threatens the relationships and intellectual networks cultivated through DSSG’s operations. For early-career scholars and graduate students, the community built through DSSG and other CCCC’s standing groups provides an introduction to the field and supportive mentorship. We are deeply saddened by the thought that future generations of rhetoric and composition scholars and students will not be able to benefit from all that CCCC offers. CCCC plays a critical role in pedagogical knowledge production in composition and writing studies and beyond, and the loss of disability and accessibility position statements written by composition…

The purser on my first flight home from DiGRA in Ireland saw my phone background of my cats and ran to get his own phone to show me his. Then, he asked how long I’d been gone, and when I told him he said: “Ah, so you’re going home to be punished.” Truly some things are universal.

One thing this AWS shortage has taught me is the amount of academics who prefer to begin their weeks with grading and emails on Monday morning. Can we talk about how many of us apparently structure our day in that order? 🤣

Tuesday was my first teaching day of the semester, and Jimmy Buffett’s “Volcano” was stuck in my head the whole day. That seems foreboding in a way I can’t quite put my finger on.

After a solid 15 years of having a recurring nightmare about signing up for a college class, not knowing I was enrolled, and then getting an F, I have now unlocked the teacher version. It’s similar, where you somehow don’t find out that you’ve been assigned a class until the term is over. 😵‍💫😮‍💨

Stuff that doesn’t get old: seeing your work appear in journals you read and look up to, being able to read citations in your second language, being able to read a citation of yours in a bilingual journal (article is in English but I’d love to get to a place where I can translate the whole thing!)
