The Writing Council
The Writing Council includes faculty, deans, and administrators from the college of Arts and Sciences committed to creating a fully realized culture of writing across the currciculum.
History, Mission, Recommendations

The first Council concluded its three-year term in the Spring of 2006; it summarized changes it had overseen in writing programs at the University of Washington and its proposals for further change in its Final Report.
