Meet the Director Award-winning novelist and scholar, Senior Instructor Catherine Kunce has been teaching for the Program for Writing and Rhetoric here on campus for over 16 years. Her interests in Composition Studies center on inventive ways to engage critical thinking, on expanding notions of “writing,” and on celebrating diversity, whether that diversity is among people, cultures, animals, or ideas. She believes strongly that studying abroad promotes better understanding of all nations. It is also a magnificent vehicle for self-discovery.
