Lindsay Dunne '04

Lindsay Dunne '04 majored in English and minored in Education while at Haverford.  After teaching at a Quaker elementary school, she moved to Washington, D.C. to attend Georgetown University's Masters in English program.  As a Writing Center Associate Fellow, Lindsay served as a teaching assistant for a first year writing course, and later taught her own section of first year writing.  In her second year, she worked with graduate students in the University Writing Center and assisted faculty with administration of the graduate program.  Her thesis project explored public discourse about Hurricane Katrina, a topic that combined her interests in rhetoric, environmentalism, creative nonfiction, and media studies.  After completing her degree, Lindsay taught College Composition in the adult-BA program at Trinity University.  She is now beginning a PhD program in English, concentrating in Rhetoric and Composition, at the University of Maryland in College Park, and hopes to be engaged in writing, teaching, and good conversations about them, for many happy years to come.
