Congratulations to Roger Austin!!
Congratulations go out to Roger Austin, one of our Marian E. Wright Writing Center tutors! Roger was accepted into the PhD program in Rhetoric and Composition at Georgia State University in Atlanta. This fall he intends to focus his studies in writing center theory and first year or developmental composition. He and his wife plan to move to Georgia sometime this summer, but he’s still here, in our writing center for the spring semester. Roger has not only been a fantastic tutor, but a mentor, and important member of the writing center staff, taking on many great projects, including overseeing the online tutoring program for the DNP students. Roger has been a valued tutor, and we are really going to miss him. Please stop by the writing center and congratulate Roger and wish him well.

Roger,
It has been a pleasure and an honor being your colleague this past year and a half. I remember thinking you were a student teacher when I first started in the big wide world of the writing center. I have always admired your honesty, humor, and integrity. Needless to say, I have learned much from you and I know your future students and colleagues will as well! I’ll be keeping you and your wife in my prayers for a smooth move and easy transition to the beautiful state of Georgia. Please stay in touch. I’m sure I”ll be reading your published work in the near future!
