October 27: Symposium on Antiracist Writing Assessment

Please join UO’s Composition Program on Friday, October 27, for a Symposium on Antiracist Writing Assessment (https://arwa.uoregon.edu/).

This full day of events will bring together teachers of writing intensive courses, campus leaders in antiracism efforts, and other members of the UO community working toward curricular reform to consider different designs for inclusive writing assignments and learning environments.

The symposium features a writing assessment workshop led by Dr. Asao B. Inoue, whose award-winning social justice-focused work in Rhetoric and Composition engages the disproportionate barriers to success for students of color, first-generation college students, and other students from diverse backgrounds.

For information about Dr. Inoue’s workshop, symposium registration materials, and additional resources for related to intersectional antiracist pedagogies, please visit the Symposium’s website at https://arwa.uoregon.edu/.

We hope you’ll join us!
