Related Activities and Conclusion

I n addition to the activities proposed in my Sabbatical Leave Request,

also had a once - in- a- lifetime post: Program Chair for the Midwest

Regional Conference of Two -Year College English Teachers, These duties

entailed some telephone and printing expenses for the college, and i am

grateful for that support. One of the pleasant jobs was corresponding with

fellow English teachers from New York to Texas, as well as several VIP in

the community college field --John Roueche, Dale Parnell, and George

Vaughan. We shared professional concerns, cultivated mutual respect, and

the conference got excellent reviews.

My sabbatical leave, then, was 100% positive. I learned a lot, and 1

returned fresh. I will try to implement those ideas that i think would

benefit the college.

13 KALAMAZOO VALLEY COMMUNITY COLLEGE Interoffice Memo

DATE: 22 Oct 85 SUBJ: English Writing Skills/ experto credite TO: KVCC Faculty, Main Building FROM: John Holmes & Bill Lay

Recently several faculty members from different disciplines have approached us, asking advice about writing--either their students' or their own. How do they grade a tech report or a paper in psych or history when they can barely read it? How can they teach content when their students don't use proper English? How many /. 's in t,-2ntalL-ing? is e. the same as e.g.? Is it OK to end a sentence with a preposition? ... We're glad to hear those concerns are not ours alone and are always pleased to render a definite maybe verdict. But that's not enough. So here are some more responses:

1. We have put some handbooks of grammar and usage in the faculty lounge (Main Building). Please try those. If you need some help interpreting, give us a call.

2. Remember that living languages like Modern English are evolving - -in vocabulary especially, but also in spelling and grammar. Usage levels are frequently determined by the intended audience of the paper. And all of us need some brushing up so we won't get brushed off.

3. Remember that the 200-level English courses require a research paper. If you're assigning a paper before students take the English class, your students may need a lot of help with the format. You can provide that, or you can require a standard style sheet like the MLA or the APA name date system. (Note that the MLA phased out footnoting several years ago.) We have guides to these style sheets if you'd like to look at them--so do the reference librarians in the LRC and the English Lab in Redwood. Finally, remember Nicholas Murray Butler's words in a Columbia University commencement address, "An expert is one who knows more and more about less and less."

4 One audacious faculty member even suggested a workshop during seminar days to discuss such Witty - gritty. Once again, if you'd like one, we would be willing to volunteer for such a program. Of course, don't expect consensus from US.

In the highest ranges of triought, in theology, philosophy and science, we find differences of view on the part of the most distinguished experts--theologians, philosophers and scientists. The history of scholarship is a record of disagreements. • .,(Charles Evans Hughes, 1936 speech to the American Law instititute)
