Anne Ruggles Gere; Sarah C. Swofford; Naomi Silver; Melody Pugh
College Composition and Communication, v67 n2 p243-266 2015
Examination of the perspectives and experiences of faculty, graduate student instructors, and undergraduates participating in a WAC/WID program shows how discipline-focused WAC/WID principles are often resisted, interrogated, and subverted by all three groups of stakeholders. New disciplinarity, especially its concepts of borderlands and elasticity, offers a promising focus for WAC/WID.
