Xchanges

Xchanges is an interdisciplinary Technical Communication, Writing/Rhetoric, and Writing Across the Curriculum journal, which publishes two issues annually from its home in the Technical Communication program at New Mexico Tech.  Our Winter issue each year, published in March, features the theses and research projects of upper-level undergraduate students.  We receive submissions (article-length research projects or senior theses) from students from a wide array of institutions across the country.  Our faculty review board, comprised of TC, Comp/Rhet, and WAC faculty from throughout the U.S., reviews these submissions on a “blind” basis.  Our second issue of each year, published in November, is an international graduate student issue, the submissions to which are also subject to blind review by our board.  We welcome undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines to submit their work to Xchanges, either as traditional articles or as multi-modal “webtexts.”

We hope you enjoy our current issue of Xchanges!  This issue features four articles by graduate students representing a diverse collection of institutions. Use the navigation menu at left to peruse our current and past issues and the navigation menu at top to return “home” and to learn more about the journal in general.  We welcome your feedback and we are looking forward to producing many more excellent issues of Xchanges from NMT in the future.  Please enjoy the rigorous undergraduate and graduate-student research in the TC, Comp/Rhet, and WAC fields that we have published here in Xchanges and stay tuned for more innovative scholarship in future issues.  Issue 8.1, our next undergraduate student issue, will be released in February, 2012.
