About this title

Synopsis

This text posits definitions, tactics, and consequences of feminist administration. Inspired by tensions that arise between feminist beliefs and administrative imperatives, contributors write from their locations as WPAs, Graduate WPAs. Writing Center Directiors, WAC Directions, Chairs, and Journal Editors, and also from ther locations as graduate students, adjunct faculty, assistant professors, associate professors and full professors. From these differing locations, contributors identity issues of concern for feminist adminstrators, share stories of their own successes and failures, theorize these experiences in light of feminist thought and practice, and offer pragmatic recommendations to readers.

From the Back Cover

This text posits definitions, tactics, and consequences of feminist adminstration. From their differing locations the contributiors identify concern for feminist administrators, share stories of their own successes, and failures, theorize these experiences in light of feminist thought and practice, and offer pragmatic recommendations to readers. Together the chapters forward three claims: that gendered issues still exists within the the rhetoric and composition studies; that models in this collection may be adapted by readers for their own situations; that eh dominant trope for performing feminist administration is oxymoron, the ability to keep two conflicting ideas in one's had at the same time.
