The Writery

Click on the Writery issues below to view them in Adobe PDF format. If you do not have Adobe Acrobat, the free multi-platform reader required to view PDF files, you can get it from Adobe. Please note that you also may have to set your web browser to use Adobe Acrobat when downloading PDF files. You can set this manually through the "preferences" interface in your browser, or select the Adobe Acrobat application when your browser asks which application it needs to use with PDF files.

In addition, depending on your monitor and computer capabilities, the font we use in The Writery may not display properly on-screen with Acrobat, but should print normally.

Campus Writing Program
Writery Editorial Policy

The Campus Writing Program welcomes articles from faculty, staff, and students who are interested in addressing some aspect of teaching, learning, or writing. Because The Writery is read by a more diverse audience than many contributors may be used to addressing, some revision is inevitable. We do ask our contributors, who typically are widely published in other arenas, to anticipate and to be patient with our collaborative revision process. Once an article has been revised, we reserve the right to change without authors approval the following: spelling, usage, grammar, layout, pull quotes, and captions. CWP also reserves the right not to publish submissions.

Articles up to 1,000 words are invited and may take any of a number of forms, including a problem+solution teaching idea, a position piece, a review article, a case study, or a personal-experience essay. For problem+solution teaching essays, please describe the idea with enough detail that another reader could understand and adapt it. Please include specific information about the teaching context, discuss possible applications, and identify limitations. Review articles need to target a book somehow related to teaching, learning, writing, or university affairs. Case studies could be real or hypothetical. Footnotes are discouraged (and discouraging!).

 The editor may suggest revision but does not have license to change without negotiation the following:

• focus or content
• organization
• title
• photo selection

Staff may make recommendations to the editor, who will then negotiate with the author about any matters above. However, the author has the last word. Published several times each year, The Writery is distributed to MU faculty, and to students and friends by request. © 1999 By the Curators of the University of Missouri.
