> We are in a gorgeous new spot in the center of campus, with spiffy
> new offices (sizable, hardwood floors, fresh paint, collegiality
> abounding) - a WPA-built building named after Eleanor Roosevelt.
> As a writing faculty, we work extremely well together, and
> collaborate on just about everything.
> And now, with our official designation as an independent academic
