The Writing Center Journal
Aims & Scope
As the leading academic forum for writing center studies, WCJ publishes innovative and rigorous scholarship:
- Broadly defined to include theoretical scholarship, research (empirical studies), historical inquiry, and/or guidance on all aspects of establishing and maintaining a writing center;
- That acknowledges how the contexts in which we operate, the frameworks that guide our thinking, and our experiences and identities invite a plurality of appropriate ways of conducting research and scholarship;
- Composed and reviewed by writing center people representing diverse expertise, experiences, identities, spaces, places, career trajectories, and languages;
- Responsive to questions of the day;
- Accessible to new audiences, in various formats, and via languages other than English (when possible) through collaborations with affiliate organizations in other nations/continents and by working with the IWCA Board to integrate support for publishing/reviewing within mentoring programs, conferences, and summer institutes.
