Composition Studies 51.2 (Fall 2023) by Davis, Matt

The oldest independent periodical in the field, COMPOSITION STUDIES publishes original articles relevant to rhetoric and composition, including those that address teaching college writing; theorizing rhetoric and composing; administering writing programs; and, among other topics, preparing the field's future teacher-scholars. All perspectives and topics of general interest to the profession are welcome. We also publish Course Designs, which contextualize, theorize, and reflect on the content and pedagogy of a course. Contributions to Composing With are invited by the editor, though queries are welcome. CONTENTS OF COMPOSITION STUDIES 51.2 (Fall 2023): Editorial Introduction: What Is Good Writing?
