Technical Communication and Rhetoric

And to wind down, May Seminar students and faculty members enjoyed an evening of scrumptious buffet and heartfelt conversations at The Greenhouse at Buddy Holly Avenue. Catering by Chez Sami. Vibes courtesy of Lubbock sunset.

The second lunch keynote of this year’s May Seminar was given by Dr. Stuart Selber, Professor of English and Director of Digital Education at Penn State. While Dr. Selber delivered his talk via distance, the students and faculty members were captivated by his practical heuristics for (re)framing AI competencies in technical communication. Pictured here are introductions by Dr. Beau Pihlaja, director of graduate studies, and Dr. Michael Faris, department chair.

Day 2 of our May Seminar began with a research network forum, where second-year cohort members present their research ideas to peers and faculty members in a mid-paced, rotating feedback format.

Our annual May Seminar, a multi-day in-person learning event designed for online doctoral students in TCR, is currently underway! Featured here is the first lunch keynote, “Access by Design,” presented by Dr. Imari Cheyne Tetu, incoming assistant professor at TTU.
