Annual
Fall Connections Conference
Our silver
anniversary conference in 2007 on Friday, October 19
at Muskegon Community
College was a great success! The Michigan
Writing Centers Association's Fall Ideas Exchange
on Saturday, October 20 at MCC had record attendance
as well. Congratulations to "Ms. MTA," conference
chair Kathryn Schrader, for a memorable event.
Here is schedule

as director of career development services. |

also won the nicest door prize). Here his proud supervisor
Beth De Verna presents him with the MTA award. |

We are seeking
hosts for the 2009 and 2010 conferences; it's fun and a chance
to really raise the profile of tutoring on your campus!
