Contributors are being sought for the fall 2007 issue of FORUM. Please consider writing for this publication and pass the word along to your colleagues, especially adjuncts in your department.

FORUM is published by the Committee on Contingent, Adjunct, and Part-time Faculty (CAP) of the Conference on College Composition and Communication. FORUM publishes articles and essays related to non-tenure-track faculty in college English or composition courses. FORUM is published twice a year, appearing in the September issue of CCC and the March issue of TETYC. Back issues of FORUM are available at http://www.ncte.org/cccc/pubs/forum.

Possible topics might include personal experience (good and bad), the need for particular kinds of training for adjunct instructors, and examples of English departments that treat their adjuncts particularly well. I’m also especially interested in hearing about the experience of adjuncts teaching online courses both at their home institutions as well as at a distance. Article length can range from 1000-1500 words. I’d like to receive articles by April 15 (though proposals are also welcome for a later issue).

Please contact the editor if you might be interested in writing for FORUM or can recommend possible contributors.
