Title
Diversity, Ideology, and Teaching Writing
Creator
Maxine Hairston
Date
May 1992
Description
Hairston warns against ideological creep into the writing classroom. Emphasizing that she herself is (or was) a political liberal, she argues that a "process-oriented, low-risk, student-centered classroom" makes students more comfortable, fosters self-expression, and engages interest. She ends with a call to action to fellow likeminded professors.
