Paths & Respondents
In addition to individual chapters, the volume is also organized into a series of seven reading paths, or clusters of chapters. Each Radiant Figures path begins with an experienced writing program administrator-scholar responding to multiple chapters in the path, drawing connections between chapters and their own situated experiences, and framing generative questions and possibilities raised by authors in the collection.
