\"mertzjenna1\"By Jenna Mertz, Undergraduate Assistant Director of the Writing Fellows Program. \u00a0Jenna is a senior majoring in English, Spanish and Environmental Studies. \u00a0She has been a Writing Fellow for six semesters.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Last Friday, undergraduate Writing Fellows and Writing Center instructors convened to mingle, share, and engage with each other at the annual joint staff meeting highlighting the original research of seven Writing Fellows. Attendees shuffled from room to room to listen to presentations featuring discussions about power dynamics, body language, and agenda setting during the writing conference; to explorations of identity, rhetoric, and multilingual tutors.<\/p>\n

As my fellow Undergraduate Assistant Director, Logan, and I watched our peers present and grad students listen and scribble in what seemed to be shake-up of roles, we got a little existential. We got to thinking about ourselves. We got to thinking about undergraduates, and what it means to be us.<\/p>\n

The Oxford English Dictionary, in its infinite wisdom, provided us with three bits of insight.<\/p>\n

The first, and fairest: \u201cA student in a university who has not yet taken a degree, and thus is still below the academical standing of a graduate.\u201d<\/p>\n

The second, slightly more biting: \u201cOne imperfectly instructed, or as yet inexpert (in<\/em> something).\u201d<\/p>\n

And, in its cruel adjectival form, we have the stab, salt, and twist: \u201cOf lower degree; of inferior importance.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Oxford English Dictionary, in all its infinite wisdom, seemed echo the impressions that many undergraduates have of themselves (and others have of them) as the low rungs on the ladder beneath their distant grad student kin.<\/p>\n

After all, graduate students can be rather frightening people. Perched in the corner of some undergraduate seminar, laughing at the professor\u2019s jokes, quoting Foucault and Fish and holding that yellow legal pad all of them seem to have, graduate students appear to be the ultimate Knowers of All Things and Speakers of Truth. And for undergraduates, it\u2019s easy to feel \u201cof lower degree\u201d or of \u201cinferior importance.\u201d\u00a0 It\u2019s easy to feel, well, like under<\/em> graduates.<\/p>\n

Our intellectual endeavors are often relegated to our own spaces, which are defined by our status on the academic totem pole. For example, there\u2019s the Undergraduate Symposium, the Undergraduate Research Scholars program, the Journal of Undergraduate International Studies<\/em>. Our work, it seems, inhabits a strictly undergraduate world.<\/p>\n

And this isn\u2019t to say that such separation is intended to demean undergraduate work\u2014hardly! These forums rightly celebrate the already impressive achievements of young people at the beginning of their academic careers.\u00a0 But the term \u201cundergraduate\u201d does carry some baggage with it. It sets our work apart from that of our graduate student friends or faculty. Undergraduates are perceived as different. Our research is perceived as different. The term invites others to brand our contributions to academia as different, as that of greenhorns, novices, or fledglings. The word highlights our \u201cunder-ness.\u201d<\/p>\n

And for those undergraduates already insecure about their ability to genuinely enrich or add to scholarly conversations, it\u2019s easy to become cowed. To second-guess. To slip into silence.<\/p>\n

It is for these reasons that the Writing Center\/Writing Fellows Joint Staff Meeting feels especially important, uplifting, and validating for Fellows. In this forum, our research is taken seriously with the expectation that it will shape and change the practices of our peers and Writing Center instructors. Fellows eloquently field questions from grad students who have studied much more Foucault and read much more Fish than they have. They delve into things as seemingly disparate as LGBTQ and Christian discourse, and discuss the ways\u2014how meta is this\u2014 peer tutors can trade expertise, knowledge, and power in the writing conference. Their insightful research has tangible impacts upon people who have been doing this work much longer than they have.<\/p>\n

To give readers an idea of how impactful Fellow research was at this year\u2019s meeting, here are a few insights from some Writing Center instructors<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

\u201cCarla wonderfully disrupted binaries (expert tutor\/novice writer, writing\/content), opening space for writing tutors and instructors to rethink some of our core assumptions about teaching.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201c[Chelsea\u2019s] project made me think in new and expansive ways about what it means to borrow a different discourse to express your argument, and how that can be used as a persuasive rhetorical technique. She sparked a sophisticated Q&A about discourse and reconciliation, and she got a lot of people talking about the persuasive aspects of writing.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI learned a lot from [Elise\u2019s] presentation on first-generation college students’ interactions with the Writing Center\u2026 This presentation reminded me once again of the importance of empathy and flexibility in my Writing Center work, because I can never know all the factors that bear invisibly on my interactions with students.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cJoslyn’s presentation got me thinking about how the first question of the conference has the greatest amount of leverage when it comes to establishing whether that conversation will be a success. Thinking, then, about Carla’s discussion of expertise-sharing, I have begun wondering how I can use the first question to get the writer to start teaching\u00a0me<\/em>, so that remains the major dynamic of our interaction.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI have been thinking about the power dynamics of hand gestures all weekend and am eager to watch myself during my next sessions and reflect on what I do in practice.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Jessie

Fellows had equally glowing things to say of their peers<\/strong> and how the presentations inspired, expanded upon, and shaped their thinking:<\/p>\n

\u201cI was pleasantly surprised by how creative and diverse the presentation topics were. The presenters made me re-evaluate my conception of traditional \u2018research.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026It stuck out to me how Alex was able to generate practical advice from his research regarding gestures within the conference. His presentation in combination with Niru’s presentation on language made me aware again of the importance of being conscientious in the conference setting over more than just the writing techniques introduced to us in English 316.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI especially enjoyed Carla’s proposal to put the paper itself aside during the conference and simply engage in a conversation that allows the fellow to learn from the writer, thereby better understanding the class and reinforcing the writer’s sense of confidence.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI liked the way [Carla\u2019s] talk drew out a range of experience from Fellows and WC instructors alike, and really engaged the entire room on a common issue, despite the age and experience gaps of the people present.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Writing<\/p>\n

Presenters also expressed how valuable the opportunity was for them:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThis research is important to me, so I was thrilled to share what I find\u00a0significant\u00a0in the topic with a larger audience. I was especially pleased with the encouraging feedback I received from the Writing Center staff–feedback I will be able to implement in further research on the topic.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of the things I liked best about the presentations was the audience interaction. They had really thoughtful questions, and came up to talk to [the presenters] afterwards as well. It really made me feel validated!\u201d<\/p>\n

It is our hope that this validation\u2014as a student, as a scholar, as a respected voice in the \u201cconversation of mankind\u201d\u2014 gives Fellows the confidence to realize that their work is not only significant in the undergraduate world, but also in the wider writing world. Fellows, you can publish! You can present at national conferences! This experience is a springboard to bigger stages, and as Fellows who have accomplished both those things, we hope that our peers have the confidence to pursue these opportunities. Your work isn\u2019t \u201cunder\u201d anything.<\/p>\n
