<div><font face="Arial" size="2">My hard-charging 1A student with the 100 signatures
got a call this morning from the chancellor's office and apparently will be
meeting with him. I could don my cynic's hat and grumble fatalistically about
how -- unless the meeting produces millions of dollars out of thin air -- it
isn't likely to accomplish much, but for the moment I'm wearing my teacher's
hat: I'm happy for her, encouraged to see her initiative, delighted she
applied rhetoric to a real-world situation and got a meeting out of it, and I'm
wishing her luck.</font></div>

answer.<br>><br>><br>><br>> My current 1A students are worried
because 1B sections are pretty much<br>> full.<br>> They wonder (as do
I) when they will be able to get into 1B-will they have<br>> to wait till
next year? They also wonder whether not being able to<br>>
complete<br>> the 1ABC sequence this year will hinder their overall
progress at UCR. I<br>> think this worry affects students
trying to complete 1C as well. To whom<br>> should I direct these
students, and what strategies does the writing<br>> program<br>>
recommend? I hesitate to send a large group into the already
overworked<br>> center to complain. Please advise. Thank
you.<br>><br>> _______________________________________________<br>>
