CFSHRC EB Response to Cs Dissolution
| The Executive Board of the Coalition of Feminist Scholars in the History of Rhetoric and Composition has been watching the social media posts regarding NCTE’s intention to dissolve the Conference on College Composition and Communication into their College Section. We too have found this news incredibly disheartening. We urge NCTE to take the time to hear from Cs leadership and our larger scholarly community before they make any decisions regarding the future of Cs.
While we await official statements and clarity from leadership of both NCTE and Cs, we wanted to express our appreciation for the immense impact Cs has had on the formation, growth, and sustainability of our field for over three quarters of a century. During this painful time, we see the deep care we have for our work and the endless generosity of time, talent, and expertise that so many in our community have donated to Cs and to us all over the years. We deeply appreciate the executive board and Cs leadership for their work during this difficult time. Any organization is made up of people, and we will persist and thrive. In solidarity, |
