The fifth annual Writing Across Institutions conference was held April 5, 9 a.m.-6 p.m., in the Price Lake Room of the Plemmons Student Center on Appalachian's campus.  Our keynote speaker was Dr. Kim Gunter, director of the Composition Program at Appalachian, who led us in a workshop on teaching developmental writing.  We had great discussions concerning developmental courses and the new curriculum changes.  

The 2012 WAI conference was held on Appalachian's campus on April 13 with faculty from 8 institutions attending.

We are happy to announce that Wilkes Community College's English 112 and 114 courses will be accepted for English 2001 credit as soon as the process can be implemented by the Office of Transfer Articulation.  This has been a successful collaboration between Appalachian's WAC Program and Wilkes faculty and will be a great help to those students who transfer from Wilkes to Appalachian.
