Trip to St. Louis for NWP

My second trip to St. Louis was a work trip for the advanced institute our Eastern Illinois Writing Project is hosting this year. During the trip, we reviewed our assessment data and made a few changes to our calendar, and, after my co-director left, wrote our mid-year report.

Here's the agenda:
