Re: peer tutor listserv

[Jen and Karl <jenandkarl@scescape.net>]

Personally, I love the fact that peer tutors use this list. On the other
hand, though, I wonder if there aren't compelling reasons for tutors to
have their own list. I can think of a couple concerns specific to
tutors--juggling coursework, tutoring close friends etc.--that they may or
may not feel comfortable discussing among directors. The dominant voice on
this list seems to be that of the director.

Unless I'm losing my mind, I'm sure a listserve existed separate of wcenter
for writing tutors. I thought it was WRITINGC, but I could be mistaken. If
the listserve no longer exists, or I have, in fact, lost my mind, please
let me know. I'll be happy to set one up.

Oh. I apologize for the signature file switcheroos I've been doing. I'm
using the account at home and I'm still getting used to the "alternate
signature" option.
