Students enrolled in the course are required to submit a draft of each paper (usually 2 – 3 a term) to the writing fellow two weeks before it is due to the instructor.  The fellow responds in writing to each draft and returns the drafts to the students.  The fellow prepares a summary of comments for the instructor.  Students revise and (may) meet for one-to-one conferences with the fellow before handing in the final version.  The students submit drafts and fellow comments with final version for the instructor.  Some fellows are asked to run writing workshops for the instructor.,[object Object]

Final Thoughts…,[object Object],Management style:  I’m not a micro-manager.  I believe in the co-existence of a horizontal and vertical structure to an organization and believe that each tutor, client, and administrator is a “knowledge worker.”,[object Object]
Questions, comments, concerns?,[object Object],Thank you for your time and consideration.,[object Object]
