Welcome back! I hope that everyone had a regenerative break and is as excited about the upcoming semester as we are! Keep your eyes open for updates from the ICaP committee as well as announcements about upcoming events. With MLK day upcoming the Purdue University and Lafayette–West Lafayette communities are invited to attend University Celebration on January 21, 2010, at 7:00 p.m.

In light of the significance of writing in our national life, to draw attention to the remarkable variety of writing we engage in, and to help writers from all walks of life recognize how important writing is to their lives, October 20, 2009, will be celebrated as The National Day on Writing.

Please complete the following instructor information form. This helps ICaP track who is teaching in the various syllabus approaches and what texts they are using.

Thanks to each and every one of you who helped to make the 2009 ICaP Showcase a success! We look forward to your support again next year. In the meantime, we are proud to announce the 2009 ICaP Showcase winners for outstanding presentations and projects by students and instructors from English 10600 and English 10800*:
