The Two-Year College on MLA Commons 9 years, 2 months agoDear colleagues:
I truly could not be more excited about this discussion. As Ian mentioned, at the University of Washington (and with the generous support of the Mellon Foundation), we are placing doctoral students into mentoring collaborations with two-year college faculty in Seattle. It would be difficult to overstate how transformative this…[Read more]

The Two-Year College on MLA Commons 9 years, 2 months agoHi, Jessica, Stacey, and Katrina,
Indeed, I’m thinking of something precisely on this topic! I’ve been working quite a bit with the Simpson Center for Humanities at the University of Washington, and they offer a fellowship program in which current grad students mentor with faculty at Seattle-area community colleges.
I’ve heard of similar /…[Read more]

The Two-Year College on MLA Commons 9 years, 3 months agoHi Lisa (and others):

The Executive Committee meets annually at the convention to discuss possible nominees for the co…[Read more]

Lisa L. Tyler replied to the topic Nominate yourself for the Community College Executive Committee! in the discussion
The Two-Year College on MLA Commons 9 years, 3 months agoCould you describe the responsibilities of the members of the executive committee? I know that members have to attend MLA conferences during their term, but how long is a term, and where would the MLA conferences be? I’m replying here rather than privately because I may not be the only person who would like more information.
