Relocation of Reading & Writing Centers on the Middletown



Initiative TitleRelocation of Reading & Writing Centers on the Middletown
Submitted in Previous Year(s)No
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale

With the acceleration of student progress through developmental courses, we will need to combine these two support centers in order to maximize skill transfer and assistance in applying reading and writing skills to English course work and in other disciplines.  The benefits of this will be maximized by cross-training of faculty and tutors and shared staffing which can only be accomplished by physically connecting the two spaces.

Consequences of this initiative not being funded

Students will not receive the assistance they require through support in the integration of skills.

Department GoalsPlan for renovation of English Department facilities that support the demands of co-requisite course delivery, specifically the Reading and Writing Centers on both campuses.
