<p class="MsoNormal">The number of programs in technical and professional communication has grown rapidly in the last decade, and to meet this growth, programs and departments have called upon colleagues – often those without extensive experience in program
 administration such as junior faculty and those not in tenure-line positions -- to bear the responsibility of daily management. While other professions often provide structured mentorship and professional development opportunities for junior employees to evolve
 into leadership positions, higher education, by contrast, has normalized the practice of assigning leadership responsibilities upon those who might not yet be prepared either through training or with the practical experience and institutional authority to
 succeed as fully as they might. <span class="cf01"><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">This is especially the case for scholars from marginalized backgrounds, who are frequently assigned leadership responsibilities in diversity and
 inclusion without adequate support and compensation.</span></span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This year’s CPTSC conference is dedicated to challenging this paradigm by welcoming presentations, panels, posters, and workshops on the pragmatic issues that program administrators face as they manage, lead, and develop their programs.
 In particular, we seek to create a dialogue among those who have deeper experience with program administration and new, diverse voices and perspectives that might suggest alternative perspectives for meeting the daily needs of program administration.
