The M.A. in English with a Concentration in the Teaching of Writing and Literature (See Graduate Programs on the English Department Homepage) and two doctoral programs, the Ph.D. in Education and the Doctor of Arts in Community College Education (DACCE), have given me the opportunity to work with a number of graduate students individually through independent studies and thesis or dissertation committees.
Further, I've also had the chance to work with many faculty in all fields through my administrative roles as Director of English Composition and Director of Writing across the Curriculum, positions I held through Spring 1998. As chair of the English Department since summer 1998 I'm able to work with faculty, staff, and students in still other ways. English Department Homepage
In addition, my teaching, writing, and program development have led to my being asked to serve as a consultant to schools, colleges, and other organizations locally and in other parts of the country.

Since 1978, I've worked with K-12 teachers through the Northern Virginia Writing Project. For more on the Project, click on NVWP.
