Dear All:
On behalf of the editorial team at Xchanges <http://xchanges.org>, I am
delighted to inform you that our Spring 2020 Graduate Student Issue
<http://www.xchanges.org/welcome-to-issue-15-1> is now live! This past
year, we received an unprecedented number of article-length submissions,
and with special thanks to our amazing faculty review board, we are sharing
with you here the following three full-length articles:
- "The Shrine of Chino Mine: Extraction Rhetoric and Public Memory in
Southern New Mexico <http://www.xchanges.org/the-shrine-of-chino-mine>"
by Kelli R. Lycke Martin
- "Mimetics as Digital Culture
<http://www.xchanges.org/mimetics-as-digital-culture>" by Jacklyn Heslop
- "Student Perceptions of Writing Instruction: Twitter as a Tool for
Pedagogical Growth
<http://www.xchanges.org/student-perceptions-of-writing-instruction>" by
Sarah Lonelodge and Katie Rieger
These authors have done amazing work, and we're thankful for the
opportunity to feature it here.
This issue is for all intents and purposes a double issue, as *Xchanges*
Associate Managing Editor Al Harahap and I also had the particular pleasure
of working over the past year with graduate student leaders across a range
of graduate organizations in the field in our role as coeditors of a Symposium
on the Status of Graduate Study in Rhetoric and Composition
<http://www.xchanges.org/welcome-to-issue-15-1>. As Al and I note in our
introduction <http://www.xchanges.org/symposium-on-graduate-study-intro>,
the authors of the eleven pieces collected in this symposium "incisively
define their identities as graduate students against particular problems,
with consideration toward specific needs, and with an eye toward concrete
solutions."
- "Editor's Introduction: Rhetoric and Composition Graduate Students
Define Their Identities Against Dominant Narratives

Harahap and Brian Hendrickson | PDF

We hope you'll honor their stories, critiques, and recommendations - and
the heart-work that went into each of them - by reading them closely and
considering what you can do to contribute to a more equitable field for our
graduate student colleagues.
Please share this issue widely, use it as a teaching tool, and encourage
your undergraduate and graduate students to submit by June 30 for
consideration for next year's issues. It is our hope that *Xchanges* can
continue to serve as an important site for students in writing studies and
related fields to bring scholarly attention to the matters that matter most
to them.
Thanks as always for supporting *Xchanges*!
