Faculty Voices: Walden Talks Writing

With almost 700 (yes, you read that right!) blog posts in our 10-year history, Writing Center bloggers have shared their perspective on a variety of writing topics and many ways of thinking about writing. Writing is such a rich topic for a blog because there are so many ways to write about writing.

However, we realized that as much as you all enjoy hearing from the Writing Center about writing, the faculty perspective on writing is also extremely important and useful for students. Faculty are a wealth of knowledge, bringing their experiences as teachers and as writers themselves. Because of that, we are pleased to bring you our new project, FacultyVoices: Walden Talks Writing.

To develop these videos, Writing Center staff asked faculty contributors from across the university a series of questions. Drs. Allyson Wattley Gee, Catherine Kelly, Darci Harland, Gregory Campbell, Kim Critchlow, and Laurel Walsh generously gave us their time to provide their writing advice and views on academic integrity, social change, and writing a doctoral study. We are grateful for their contributions and willingness to collaborate with us. They each provided insights about writing that all students can benefit from, including sharing their own experiences and challenges writing. 

All of the Faculty Voices videos can be found on our FacultyVoices: Walden Talks Writing page and integrated throughout our website, as well as via the list below. We hope you’ll choose one to watch so you can benefit from these faculty’s experience, advice, and expertise!

• Faculty Introductions: Learn about each of our faculty contributors
• Academic Integrity: Explore what academic integrity is and how can students avoid academic integrity
