NSU Writing Center Coordinators Co-host Annual Conference

Janine Morris, Ph.D., and Eric Mason, Ph.D., NSU Writing and Communication Center (WWC) faculty coordinators, co-hosted the 2021 Southeastern Writing Center Association (SWCA) annual conference along with members of the 2020-2021 SWCA board. Morris is an assistant professor and Mason is an associate professor in the Department of Communication, Media, and the Arts in the Halmos College of Arts and Sciences. The conference was held virtually February 11-13, 2021.

The 2021 SWCA conference theme was “Trauma and Transformation,” and highlighted transformations writing center professionals and the field undertake during times of crisis and change. NSU WCC leadership and consultants presented on numerous panels and the conference had more than 400 participants from 50 institutions across the United States.

“It was a pleasure to plan and co-host the 2021 SWCA conference with my writing center colleagues from across the southeast region,” Morris said. “The conference was truly a collaborative endeavor, and I was thankful that so many people attended and had the opportunity to connect when meeting in person wouldn’t be possible.”
