"With assessment considered a significant focus of any WPA or WCD position, Writing Assessment at Small Liberal Arts Colleges will become a go-to resource for professionals of all ranks." -Allison Carr, Coe College

"I particularly appreciate the practicality of the collection and that many of the chapters include actionable steps and real samples from specific institutions/programs/initiatives. This is one of the aspects of this collection that I think will make it incredibly valuable for those doing SLAC WPA work!" -Marion Wolfe, Case Western Reserve University

WRITING ASSESSMENT AT SMALL LIBERAL ARTS COLLEGES focuses on the state of writing program administration and assessment at small liberal arts colleges. Small liberal arts colleges have rich writing traditions unique to their size and culture. This collection with twenty-two contributors details numerous unique assessment projects and showcases programs that promote inclusive pedagogy and reflective writing program administration.

WRITING ASSESSMENT AT SMALL LIBERAL ARTS COLLEGES provides an updated set of assessment projects and rhetorical analyses of practices, policies, and curricula over a decade after the publication of Gladstein and Regaignon's Writing Program Administration at Small Liberal Arts Colleges. Current and aspiring writing program administrators at small liberal arts colleges, as well as graduate students and others interested in researching or teaching at SLACs, will find chapters on writing and program assessment, writing center administration, honor codes, equitable assessment practices, reflective administration and assessment, antiracist assessment, and more.
