Last Class.

I really liked our discussion in class on Tuesday. I wanted to add to what I said to answer Trixie's question about learning the Writing Centers history.

I feel it’s really important we know we come from… so we can actually go to a place that’s more productive. I also feel that learning that the writing center has evolved greatly within the last 30 years ... and that fact that we have a management that wants to continue this trend to make the center a better place for writers is great! I feel it helps me put effort when I work ... and actually makes me want to come to work. I’m not talking about working at the center for life… I know we all have our planned careers and will follow different paths. I just feel that learning the history helped me connect with people more and gave me more job satisfaction.

Seeing and reading about change it one thing. But learning that our ideas and views could actually alter the way the Center runs… and help more writers is a wonderful feeling. The feeling of being that change (in a very small way off-course.)
