Writing Lab Director to be Featured on Web Broadcast

Bonnie Devet

Since 1989, Professor of English Bonnie Devet has directed the Writing Lab at the College of Charleston.

The lab provides students with one-to-one assistance for every stage in the writing process for term papers, essays, letters, memos or book reviews.

In addition to being the first certified writing lab in the State of South Carolina, the lab has also been recognized with the Outstanding Peer Tutor Award, the Student Employee of the Year Award, and the Outstanding Scholarship Award.

It suffices to say that Devet, who also teaches graduate and undergraduate courses in composition, knows her stuff when it comes to running a top-notch writing center. On Feb. 26, 2016, Devet will share her expertise with a national audience via a live Internet broadcast hosted by Writing Center Journal, the premier academic journal for writing center studies.

Devet will discuss her recently published journal article, “The Writing Center and Transfer of Learning: A Primer for Directors.”
