Dear All,
I’m forwarding information about the WAC institute on behalf of Prof Anson and his colleagues. I’m hoping many EATAW members will find this useful and interesting.
Best,
Magnus

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce that a two and a half-day WAC Summer Institute will be offered for the first time in summer of 2019. The Institute will be held June 23 to June 26, 2019 at the University of Denver (Colorado, USA).

The Institute is designed primarily to help new and prospective leaders of writing-across-the-curriculum, writing-in-the-disciplines, and similar initiatives in the US and internationally plan, develop, and assess their programs. It will also support experienced program directors who face new challenges or wish to update, expand, or revitalize their current programs.

Registration will open November 5, 2018, at 1:00 Eastern Standard (US) time and will be limited to 30 attendees. The first to register will receive a spot. A waitlist will be available.  The $500 registration fee includes a Sunday evening reception; breakfast, lunch, and snack breaks on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday; and an institute dinner on Tuesday. Optional social events will be offered at an additional cost.

Accommodations are not included in the registration fee. Rooms will be available in the residence halls for three nights @$175 total. For those wishing to stay in a hotel or other accommodations, light rail connects campus and downtown Denver.
