The co-authors, formerly WAC Coordinator and Fellow, and now WAC Co-Coordinators draw on their unique perspectives as well as the voices of other fellows to analyze the fluidity of the teacher and learner roles in faculty/fellow collaborations in which both partners assume the roles of teacher and learner at different times and to varying degrees. The chapter reflects the ambiguous nature of the Writing Fellow’s role and highlights the tensions inherent in maintaining this collaboration. The chapter also underscores the collaboration’s long-lasting impact on pedagogy both for the faculty member and for the Fellow who is on the cusp of an academic career. The chapter offers a model for professional development for both faculty and Writing Fellows engaged in similar academic initiatives.

Consistent with the wide ranging approaches characteristic of teaching and scholarship in writing across the curriculum, the series presents works that take divergent perspectives on working as a writer, teaching writing, administering writing programs, and studying writing in its various forms. The WAC Clearinghouse, Colorado State University Open Press, and University Press of Colorado are collaborating so that these books will be widely available through free digital distribution and low-cost print editions. The publishers and the Series editors are committed to the principle that knowledge should freely circulate. We see the opportunities that new technologies have for further democratizing knowledge. And we see that to share the power of writing is to share the means for all to articulate their needs, interest, and learning into the great experiment of literacy.
