June 10 Last Day of Camp

I wrote 1700 words toward an essay about the indoor pool as an unnatural place and experience and contrasted it with the Lake as a possibly more natural place.  It's a little clunky and too long, so I'll print it off and read it aloud today to edit it. 

To prepare for the interview of  one of President Wilson's PR guys on Tuesday, I will write up questions for him. 

I will respond to one of my previous interviewees, David Hamilton, Professor Emeritus in English, who wrote back to me after I asked him if he remembered the Ryan Report of 1979. He didn't. He's one of the few faculty still alive who can remember something about the period I'm studying-- 1979 to 1984--and one of the few UI faculty members who was not only interested in Writing across the Curriculum, but taught a WAC course called Writing for Biologists and published articles about it, and conducted WAC workshops at the University of Southern Alabama.
