fTnWWJ? STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF LETHBRIDGE M. KM.Mll VOLUME 29, ISSUE 25, March 30, 1995 MELIORIST AUof L first By Suzanne Duncan Reporter

Four students from the University have been selected to present their papers at the Northwestern Communications Association Conference in Coeur D'Elene April 20-22. This is a tremendous honour both for those students and for the I'niversity itself. Professor Jen MacLennan, who was the driving force behind the project, emphasizes that this is not an everyday event. Just to be asked to give a paper at a conference before finishing an undergraduate degree "is quite an achievement", but this is also "the first time any student from the English department has presented a paper at a conference, so having four students is awesome". The members of the association are communications scholars and professors from the Northwestern United States as well as some Canadians. While acknowledging the honour bestowed upon her, Lori Irwin, one of the student presenters, says that "what we did was quite unique and perhaps that is what helped the panel make their decision". The papers are the result of an "innovative teaching experiment". The students assisted Professor MacLennan in teaching the "Introduction to Rhetoric" (English 2800)class in the Fall 1995 semester. "It was a good experience, so we thought other schools might want to set up similar programs," said MacLennan. The students have been asked to form a panel to present the papers they wrote analyzing the experiment. The panel "Students Teaching Students: Teaching Rhetoric as a Rhetorical Challenge", will consist of Bob Gray, a graduate student from the English department, and Sue (Photo by Mike Tan) Koshman, Ruth Klinkhammer, and Lori Irwin, all senior undergraduates. Tshirts, shorts, and sunshine, a welcome sign of spring Professor Macl>ennan will also be presenting her paper, "Novice Rhetoricians in the Major international conference to be held at the university Classroom: Challenges and The primary force behind the mainly from Canada, the US, Australia conference."
